I know your pain. I know exactly where it hurts, deep down as well as superficially. It’s everywhere, under and over, and in-between. There doesn’t seem to be an escape. We search for ways to explain this hurt, this unyielding, overpowering suffocation that is Topical Steroid Withdrawal. It’s usually to no avail. The dictionary just… Continue reading A Letter to the Suffering (TSW)
I’m tired. I’m exhausted from all this. But, that’s life. This condition doesn’t give you a vacation. And it’s hard to explain that to people. It’s so slow to heal, slow like the line you wait in at the DMV to get your name changed. I’ve yet to do that — get my name changed.… Continue reading 11.5 months TSW (Topical Steroid Withdrawal)
This post is coming almost 10 days late. I wish it was because I was partying so hard that I just didn’t have time to sit down and write about my 11th month of this condition, but unfortunately that’s not the case. December 14th, I left for Toronto to see my husband and to spend… Continue reading 11 Months of TSW (Topical Steroid Withdrawal)
This recap may be a bit rushed this two weeks. So much going on! I went down south for Thanksgiving to be with my family, then started a cleanse, and now am about to be gone for 2 weeks in Canada to see my husband (who I have not seen in 3 months!). First, the… Continue reading TSW 10.5 Months
I’ve passed the 300 day mark (310)! Not really exciting in general, but to see how far I’ve come is pretty mind-blowing. It’s been a long journey with some road still ahead, but it feels much easier to track now. Knock on wood I don’t regress. I am STILL waiting for my MRSA swab results.… Continue reading 10 MONTHS TSW
And the itch goes on… 9.5 months. It’s been annoying, to say the least. I am living at my mother’s house, my husband is away being a bad ass, my dance friends are shoulder rolling on different stages, and life seems to be flowing as normal all around me as I sit and wait… and… Continue reading 9.5 Months
My birthday is in 4 days! Woot! And… 9 months of Topical Steroid Withdrawal for me. I will be making a video this week about my experience in California getting ready to be on the Doctors, however here are some highlights. I found out I have MRSA. It’s a very resistant staph infection. Fun. Their… Continue reading 9 Months TSW

Hey Guys! Here is my new video!! Sorry, this post is a bit late. These past few weeks have been a roller coaster. 1) My husband, Jack, has left for tour. He is now an Assistant Carpenter for Disney On Ice’s “Dare To Dream” show. I am so proud of him. I know it was… Continue reading 2/3 of a Year! (8 Months TSW)
Yea for 1 year of marriage with my husband!! Crap that I’ve been going through TSW for 7.5 months!! Ha, kind of funny, but not. For our 1 year, I decided that I didn’t care how I felt, we WERE going to have a nice time in Atlanta, GA. We went to the Aquarium on… Continue reading 7.5 Months (and my 1 year marriage anniversary)
