    My Secret

    My pain and suffering has been a secret. Few people know what I am and have gone through. I have sucked it up for years and have spent time alone crying only to wipe my eyes and pretend that all is well. Because I try so hard, you'd never know that I have fibromyalgia. Most people don't...
