“Hope” is the things with feathers-that perches in the soul-and sings the tune without the words-and never stops at all.

-Emily Dickinson

At the age of 26 my life was changed forever after suffering from Necrotizing Fasciitis caused by an autoimmune disease called Vasculitis. This is a personal blog of my 6 month hospital stay which consisted of 33 surgeries, followed by life after the hospital, getting off of pain medications, and the lifestyle adjustments that are helping me stay healthy.

This is a personal blog from my point of view as a patient and as someone living with Vasculitis. This blog is in no way meant to be a site for professional medical advice.
