Here we are again! April is here.
One of my favorite times of the year.
Although many celebrate one day of Cushing's awareness centered upon Harvey Cushing's birthday on April 8th, it is my goal to see April celebrated as Cushing's Awareness Month.
We need the chance to educate and advocate.
We need the support of those who surround us every day.
We need to reach all of the undiagnosed souls seeking answers in uncertain times.
We need the chance to stand up as survivors, hold hands, and say, Yes! We made it through another year.
April has become a very important time of the year for me, as a Cushing's survivor, and I hope you enjoy what's pops up this month. It will be a surprise to all of us, since even I don't know what I will say in 30 posts in April. ;)
Stick around. It will be fun for all of us.

PS2 Look how honest I am. I'm
Not even gonna count this as my first real post. I'll do 31 posts in April, and I will like it! So will you. :)
Cushies are tormented as we struggle with the medical community and face our own bodies and changing identities every day. It just shouldn't be this way.
