Since we’re all busy on this finest of holidays, I thought I’d summarize what you need to know and what you can tell your loved one about your life. I hope these snippets help you get the conversation started, and Happy Valentine’s Day!

every day is not the same

pain affects our day to day energy

we hate how our pain affects our lives; and yours

it upsets us that our life isn’t like other people we know

we still need romance

valentine’s day doesn’t have to be epic

tell us we’re not a burden and that you love us
