A letter for those who don't understand chronic pain...

Today is my day to continue writing  about "Living with Severe, Chronic Pain."  I thought of the many times we feel that others just don't understand what it's like to live with chronic pain and how it could be helpful if they could understand our lives a little better.  I came across a handout I've had for some time and have posted it so you can copy it, or simply read it and convey it's message to those who you'd like to have a better understanding of what it's like to live with chronic pain.  Hopefully it'll be a bridge between your world and theirs.

I've also added to "Inspirational readings" and you can find it under today's date here.
