Me (aka Karin): A citizen of two worlds...

A story that might help understand what is to have a chronic or "invisible" disease as in my case would be diabetes and bpd... My best friend and I were in the diner, talking. As usual, it was very late and we were eating French fries with gravy. Like normal girls our age, we spent a lot of time in the diner while in college, and most of the time we spent talking about boys, music or trivial things, that seemed very important at the time. We never got serious about anything in particular and spent most of our time laughing. As I went to take some of my medicine with a snack as I usually did, she watched me with an awkward kind of stare, instead of continuing the conversation. She then asked me out of the blue what it felt like to have Lupus and be sick. I was shocked not only because she asked the random question, but also because I assumed she knew all there was to know about Lupus.

What would you do if you had money? What would you do if you had everything that you wanted? What would you do

So... To all of those who wonder what happened to all the things I had written... well, thanks to Microsoft is all gone, except of a few things I managed to recover scratching through old docs. Unluckily, there were many things I posted that I truly liked, it is a shame that is all gone... That being said, I'd like to start by publishing some of the things I found lying around!
