004: Suicide Squad.

It's funny how the universe gives you exactly what you need sometimes. Like literally exactly what you need. I've been pushing myself to be open to new opportunities in places I may not have usually looked. How glad I am I decided to honor my request. 

It seems when one opens themselves up to possibilities, the universe decides to send those possibilities right on over. Like a summer sky, it was perfect. My soul was fed and my spirits lifted. I was temporarily swept off my feet, carried to nirvana. Reservations. Dinner. Stimulating exchanges. East Coast Living. Politics. Off-polling years. Up-dog. LLUMC. Nurses. Inland Empire-ing. Motorcycles. Burgers. Beer variations. Amazing. 

When the silence came it was only to be met with the blazing bullets of DeadShot or the shrieking laugh of the Joker. The dark beautiful romance. The morning of a superman. The dimly lit ambiance. The sultry seduction of the enchantress. Or the twisted happiness of Harley Quinn. Their unofficial pledge to country. Officially serving together. Commradery. Brotherhood. It was gangsta. The butterflies wouldn't stop dancing. It surprised me, and I liked it. 

The universe sent me exactly what I needed. And when the midnight hour struck, the universe asked me if I would love to do it again sometime?  Warmly embracing for what seemed like forever we bid the night a dew. The vibes. The smiles. My face hurt. 

I guess I learned to ask for what you want, and ask with ALL YOUR HEART, and you'll get exactly THAT!!!!

I'm Britt, I am a member of a tribe of Chronic Illness Warriors that see the road to better health and self discovery differently. We know we are sick, but our care is our choice. I started Spoonie Essentials Box , a monthly self-care subscription exclusively for fighters like me, a year after an epic battle for my life because understanding the value of Self-Care saved me. It brought me to the happiest, healthiest, best version of my life I've ever lived! I have DRESS Syndrome, a rare disease that literally makes my body shut down from certain medical drugs (& chemicals in general), along with Crohn's Disease, Lupus, and a brief relationship with Colon Cancer. As I become more open about my fight, people without Chronic Illness seem to ask me one of two things: 1. What's a cool "gift idea for a sick friend" or 2. "How to better support someone with chronic illness". The further along I get on this journey, the more I understand and ap

#SEBfamilyStory: Izzy Mejia

by: britt renee' I recently had the unique pleasure of visiting with Isabelle "Izzy" Mejia, a founding member of Spoonie Essentials Box. Izzy is a sophomore at  Arlington High School  in Riverside, California. Izzy has  Lupus ,  Juveniles Arthritis , and  Sjogren's Syndrome .  Izzy, her mom Elaine, and I talked for about 4 hours on Sunday evening. I couldn't help but be in awe of Izzy, she is an amazing intelligent, funny, and unbelievably kind young person. We talked of our shared experiences with “Fighting the Wolf” aka Lupus, a phrase Izzy coined herself because the “butterfly” analogy just wasn’t her thing. Izzy reminds me of a person much older than herself, I suppose this is likely another byproduct of living with a chronic illness at such a young age. You are forced to mature before you’re ready because the management of chronic illness thrust important life decisions into your lap long before you fully understand what they mean.
