Mama Sick

Join us today in welcoming Emily from Mama Sick. Emily shares her battles with several chronic illnesses on her blog, along with a whole lot more.
Mama Sick

Here’s a bit about Emily:

I am a chronically ill mom and my blog was started to let other sick moms know that they are not the only ones going through the challenges of being a sick parent. I do not just write about being sick, as I want well moms and others to come to my blog and realize that we are not so different, so about two-thirds of my posts deal with parenting and women’s issues. I also seek to debunk certain stereotypes. I am not the average person you think of collecting food stamps and living in poverty. I am pretty much an open book to my readers and they really appreciate my honesty.

Emily says these are some of her favorite posts:

Mama Sick’s Handy Guide for the Healthy Person tells it like it is

A lovely moment with her son in Holding My Son’s Hand.
