When she was 6 months old, she was diagnosed with pretty serious food allergies, while simultaneously beginning a battle with weeping eczema. We didn’t go anywhere without an Epi pen or a travel case filled…

My teen and ADHD
I’ve missed writing and commenting. I’ve missed my community. Being away, collecting thoughts, teaching, keeping track of life, sometimes overwhelming, sometimes challenging, I’m quite spent.
