I am veering off the typical Wordless Wednesday path this week. Instead of a happy, fun loving photo from collection of Disney magic I wanted to share a photo of a fighter, a true brave soul. This photo, although not the best quality, is a photo of my daughter Emily. Yesterday we celebrated International Trigeminal Neuralgia Awareness Day by wearing teal. I wore teal for my beautiful eleven year old daughter who is much too young to be fighting this disease, but she is doing so with grace and style. I love you Emily bum. <3
Emily wore this shirt to show her classmates that this invisible illness is real..

such a brave girl, you can be extremely proud of her. I wish both of you all the best 🙂
Thank you Elizabeth 🙂 I am very proud <3
Oh my word I love this!!! My daughter also has a condition that could use a shirt like that! Hugs to you both for being warriors and spreading awareness. Now off to read about Trigeminal Neuralgia!
Thank you Shayna, your support is appreciated. I have read your post on CBN about your daughter and I am praying for her. The unknown can be so scary..
Oh I had no idea that she had this. So so sorry to read that. I am glad you posted and I can only imagine how much this impacts her life. I hadn’t even heard of the condition until now.
Thank you Paula…the impact is bearable some days and others, not so much.. Awareness will bring about a cure one day!
Your daughter truly is a brave soul. Yesterday I read your post about your daughter’s diagnosis and I cried. I can’t even imagine being 11 and dealing with something like this. She is amazing.
Oh you are so kind Deanna, but I agree. Emily is amazing!
Hey there Emily & Suzanne loved your post. Congratulations to Emily for wearing her T-shirt to school to show the world and for you Suzanne for enlightening a lot of people to this rotten condition. Love you both
Thanks Mom, we love you too!
What a great follow up to your post!!!
Thank you Jennifer 🙂
I just read about your daughter’s diagnosis, and my heart breaks for her and for your family. I hope that you are able to find a way to manage this horrible disease and that both of you can live pain-free. Hugs.
Your daughter is a testament of a brave soul, figuratively and literally. Hoping for the best for her and your family. If you have time, please do visit mine. Have a good one.
Thank you so much for your kind words John.. I am happy to visit you 🙂
