I had to stop reading this temporarily as it prompted a thought for an essay on, Living in the Present. I needed to jot some ideas down before they were lost in the ethers. So, thank you for that Mark. And thank you Kristina for interviewing Mark and sharing his story with us.
(BTW, I did come back and finish reading this essay/interview.)
Thank you Kristina and Mark! My two sons are in their 40s and this gives me pause - somehow to get this info to them/their spouses without being the nosey MIL.I especially appreciated the symptoms summary - both of my sons are exceedingly active and I have not heard of the aches/pulling phenom. It’s important that we all be educated and aware. Thank you again!
"This journey has taught me that health is a collaborative effort. It's about listening to your body, being proactive, and supporting each other through challenges."
I think this applies beyond spouses/partners. I guess because of what I do more friends are sharing their concerns about their spouses/partners, parents, siblings.
Thankfully it doesn't dominate but there's a greater complicity to open up to each other more now, than we did before about health and care-support/caregiving.
Thanks for always networking and sharing my work, Kristina! I really appreciate the community support network we've got going to raise awareness and serve others with lived experiences! We need to promote as much empathy and connectivity as possible these days!
