My spiritual journey is all about finding the grace in the everyday—and the not so everyday—while living a full and creative life that includes chronic illness, PTSD, and depression. I'm a writer, blogger and photographer, live in lovely Minneapolis, Minnesota and am happily married to George and doggie-mama to Piper. I’m a Benedictine Oblate candidate of St. John’s Abbey in Collegeville, MN. My creative inspirations include nature, good books, Lake Superior, my flower garden, and my faith. More than anything, I cherish spending time with friends and, especially, family. View all posts by Barbara Marincel

Thanks Carolyn, you’re so sweet! Thanksgiving was super low-key because of a fibro flare, but my sister-in-law sent me a care 📦 package! Hope your Thanksgiving was delicious and wonderful!

Oh wow. I’m sorry. My daughter recently found out she has fibromyalgia. I hope you’re feeling better.

Carolyn, I’m so sorry I missed this somehow! I am also sorry to hear of your daughter’s diagnosis; the encouraging thing, though, is there are a number of helpful treatments for fibromyalgia now. When I was diagnosed back in 1995 (? I think) a lot of doctors didn’t even believe fibromyalgia was a real illness! And there is a lot of research going on to find the cause and to come up with better medications, etc. Please tell her to feel free to contact me if she has any questions, and I’ll do my best to answer them.
