About the Site

You may be wondering what this site is all about. To put it simply, it is a website for teens and young adults with chronic illnesses (mainly CFS, Lyme Disease, NMH, POTS, and Crohns) to come together for support and information.

When I became sick in 2001 I felt isolated and misunderstood. At the time, no website existed for sick kids. I decided to create a website of my own to solve this problem and to provide support not only for myself, but for others like me.

Four years ago, the main illnesses which my site focused on were CFS, NMH, and POTS. In December of 2004, I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease. I now find it important to educate others about this horrible illness, and a large amount of new information will be added.
