We think we understand chronic illnesses and those who have them, but do we really? What is it truly like to live with chronic illnesses? Are our experiences common? How can we find community? What do our loved ones with chronic illnesses experience? Julie Morgenlender, editor of the recently published nonfiction "The Things We Don’t Say: An Anthology of Chronic Illness Truths," will speak about how we define chronic illnesses, how they differ and overlap with disability, and the realities of people’s experiences. Julie will read several passages from her book and discuss their meaning, followed by a Q&A. This is your chance to ask the questions about chronic illness that you have been afraid to ask and to come away with new understanding and, for those with chronic illnesses, the reminder that you aren’t alone.
