    This is so beautifully written Nicole! You make such great metaphors. We do educate others and those cyber hugs are all so important since we are all spread so apart due to the rareness of our myositis. And your quote, “I am beautiful, I am loved and I serve a purpose in life” is something each of use should reaffirm in ourselves everyday! Thank you for sharing this with us!
