Chronic illness and special events

I almost didn’t make it to my brothers wedding. In fact at one point I begged my parents to leave me at home. Social events are very difficult for me, both mentally and physically. But I managed to go, and I pushed myself more than I thought possible. I drank, I danced, I laughed and talked to new people. I managed to create a little video before I collapsed into bed and finally allowed myself to be horizontal.
