Fact-check: Do chronic illnesses account for 90% of U.S. health care spending? A federal government campaign that encourages Americans to avoid processed foods claims that "90% of U.S. healthcare spending goes to treating chronic disease — much of which is linked to diet and lif...

Over a pale background of an aerial view of coloured fields is a poem by Cath Jevon: The Power When untethered from routines in a body that can't keep up our spirits rise free to vision the world we want to live. We see a patchwork field of memories, dreams, wishes with a river of life-force flowing through. Feeding the soul landscape with the inspiring joy of our talents. Like tributaries, our tides find each other, pulsing in recognition increasing our capacities expanding our possibilities collective momentum rolling wild and free, as we commune with clouds and circle with stars Exploring the realms of imagination dancing, laughing, revelling in our creative strength. This how we uphold ourselves. This is how we serve each other. This is how we change the world. This is the power of art.

The Power - a poem by Cath Jevon, housebound with M.E. but expressing her inner power.

Got this idea from a follower.

Let’s make a thread about all the #spoonie things that suck. A cathartic spoonie scream into the void.

I'll start with... It sucks how you can do everything right, and still have a flare.

I cannot tell you how sick I am of hearing some of these. Particularly "But you LOOK good." How one looks is no indication of how they feel. We can hide it in a way that others never could. No one sees us on the worst of days. #invisibleillness #disability #spooniecommunity #chronicpain

The Paradox of Invisible Disabilities “You don’t look disabled.” In this post, I expose the painful truth behind that phrase and the double bind of living with an invisible disability.

“You don’t look disabled.”
That dismissive line sums up the cruel catch‑22 of invisible disabilities—masking rewarded, pain dismissed.
