Story Cards

2 comments
In his book Coping with Chronic Illness, author Norm Wright suggests creating a card which explains the nature of your illness and its limitations. This can be a useful tool when interacting with family and friends. I have put such a card together and have found it helpful when a caring person asks, "What brings you to Arizona?"



My beloved blogging assistant, Sherry, helped with the design and production of our cards and now offers this service through her website, Parmelee WebWorks.

  1. I have been reading through this same book after finding in an airport store and am finding it so useful and helpful. Glad to see someone else found it helpful too. - kristy

  2. what a good idea. one thing it does is it saves you from endlessly repeating your story. someone can read it and then the converation can go from there. and if they don't want to talk about it, that's ok - you have given them the basics and they can read it again later. concise and helpful.
