The Autonomic Small Fiber Neuropathy Thief
I was closing in on my first year spent at Side by Side Assisted Living. I was also only 26 years old. As bad as that sounds, it was one of the best years of my life. From my very first tour there, I knew I was going to love it there. The assisted living ad rescued me. Before moving into assisted living I’d been at a nursing home. I suffer from a disease called autonomic small-fiber neuropathy. A disease that has stolen my childhood and adolescence from me.
