I've decided to start a new segment on this blog called 'Letters to Vera'.
They are to a girl, who will be known on this blog as, Vera. This new segment will be an upclose view into my journey of fighting the illness that changed my life on September 20, 2010.
Why, you might ask? Because every girl should know what this disease is like. Every girl, of every color, creed, race, and age needs to know that they aren't the only ones fighting this disease. In these letters, the disease in question will be known as Yellow. Yellow is a nasty disease that few know about; but those that do know about it, know the journey isn't a pleasant one. It's one filled with countless medications, hospital visitations, and it leaves a life long impression.
Every girl should have the opportunity and the means to fight. And fight I will.
Fight for those girls that don't have the strength to do it themselves. I will stand my ground. I'm fighting not only for my own battle against this, but for those that are writhing in pain; for the young one that had to make a decision, yes or no. For those who know, and for those who need to know more.
