I used to have a Tumblr blog. This post is a comment I left in a long chain of comments about an important topic that I don’t think gets very much attention.
The original poster, a woman, wrote in great detail the severity of her health issues, and how frustrated she was because her doctors flat out refused to listen to what she was telling them. Sadly, there were so many other women who had the same, frustrating experiences with their doctors.
They added their voices to the post. Some of the younger women noted that their parents wouldn’t take their symptoms seriously, and that this prevented them from getting the medical help they needed. I decided to add my personal experiences to the list.
Bebe Baker has always been pretty, right up until the car accident. She survived, but came away from it with scars all over her legs and hands. In addition, she was left with some extremely deep emotional scars. Her boyfriend, Aaron, who she was madly in love with, did not survive the accident.
