10 Tips on How to Support Someone With a Chronic Illness
For those of us living with a chronic illness, we know what we need as support from our family and friends. For those that do not live with a chronic illness, they may not know how to support their friends and/or family living with a chronic illness. I’m sharing ten tips on how to support someone with a chronic illness over at Living the Diagnosis with Vicky Warren.
About Vicky (taken from her website):
“I am a stay at home Mom of 4 very “boyish” boys, who have all sent our family on one medical adventure or another… I am also a nurse (LPN)… “on hold” for now. I love to dance, write, blog, and am an “all things medical-related” junkie.” Read more

Hi Brandi,
Stopping by from R&R…where are the 10 tips? I scrolled up and down and don’t see them. Am I doing something wrong?

You are always so helpful and inspiring with your posts. Thanks for writing this for those of us dealing with chronic illness and those that care about them. Thanks for sharing with Small Victories Sunday linkup. Pinned to our linkup board.
So thankful that I found your blog! I can’t wait to look around at your site. Life has been rough with fibro and it’s an encouragement to find others who can completely understand that battle. We homeschool and take care of my grandparents in our home 😉 Granny was diagnosed with cancer last year. I wouldn’t trade what I have on my plate for the world but the journey at times isn’t an easy one with fibromyalgia. Nice to meet you 😉
Nice to me you, too, Brandie! I’m glad that my site can be beneficial to you. That is my mission – to reach out to others and let them know they are not alone. Life is rough with a chronic illness, and anything in addition to that (daily life) can become difficult and cumbersome. I homeschooled my four children until January of this year when they decided to attend traditional school. It makes it easier on me. I’m sorry to hear about your grandmother. I understand what you are going through. My father was diagnosed with throat cancer in the Fall, and he’s been battling ever since.
