"I only have this one chance at life and one body to love"

"My endometriosis has come back and with a vengeance. It has completely taken over my life, it is hard to remain hopeful myself after experiencing this disease for my entire adult life and the misery it causes to not only to myself but my loved ones. So here I am, 24 years old and my ugliness has not only come back and taken away my dignity once again but has robbed me of a future with someone I had planned to spend the rest of my life with because he can no longer cope with the effects of my debilitating illness. I wish I were able to walk away from ‘me’ no matter how much I wish I could, I can't. I only have this one chance at life and one body to love..."

Yr story echoes my own thoughts almost word for word. It is insane the cruelty of this illness and I agree that sometimes the worse bit is the fact no one can see anything physically wrong. Good luck in your quest.
