It's amazing how many things we all take for granted. For instance, being able to raise your arm without worrying about what people might think. Or maybe getting a shower on your own. Perhaps even standing, walking, or laying down.
You see, I have to deal with those things on a daily basis thanks to Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Everyday, I'm in pain and there's no end in sight. With there being no cure, I don't have high hopes. I can't raise my arms past my shoulder some days and merely sitting on the couch brings me discomfort. I have to have my mom help me get showers because I can't wash my hair thanks to my arms. I'm even embarrassed to go out in public, afraid of what people might think.
It's happened before you know. My co-workers and friends talked about me behind my back when they thought I couldn't hear. I wish they would've just come to me instead of gossiping. But that's people for you.
