‘FIBROMYALGIA, you have bin in my body as long as I remember. You are there in every single muscle and bone. Sometimes you are here and I can’t do anything, my life stops for a moment. And sometimes you are here but you let me live my life. You effect my life day and night, for the bad but also for the good. I can cry about you for how you make me feel but also cry about you because i’m thankful. It is weird because i feel like you are apart of me but still is so unknown for almost everybody around me. Do you want to know why? Because you are invisible. But for the first time in 23 years I am about to visualize you through out this film and let people see how much i hate but love you at the same time.
LOVE,
Joanna
