The elephant in the room.....

Sometimes I wonder if my family even cares about my RA or if they are choosing to just ignore it.... Maybe because they do not understand it or maybe they just do not care to understand.I chose to tell my family about my diagnosis 7 years ago when I was diagnosed. Some did some research and wanted to share information with me about foods to avoid due  to inflammatory properties. I listened but was not ready to take heed at that time.....I needed to find my own way. I grieved....went thru denial ....depression ect. Now no one asks how I am or how I am feeling.....if I want to talk about it you can tell they are truly not listening. Maybe it's because  before I was not ready to talk....but I am now. W here are you all now....now that I am ready.. It just took my several years....sorry. I do not want that elephant around any more.
