Looks Can Be Deceiving...

They say don't judge a book by its cover, and I'm a perfect example..
Just because I can grin and bear it, and walk around with a smile on my face, don't think for one second I'm not in pain or struggling inside.
I may not look like I'm "ill", but my pain is VERY real. So please don't discount my suffering because I can paste a smile on my face...it just means I'm stronger than you give me credit for.
