Hi, I'm Kaelee and welcome to Chronically Ill in the Wild!
Like many people, I didn’t expect my twenties to include chronic illness, disability, or a wheelchair—but here I am, learning as I go. Becoming chronically ill has been a whirlwind of doctor’s appointments, grief, growth, and a lot of unlearning what I thought my life would look like.
Along the way, the online disability and chronic illness community has been an incredible source of support, knowledge, and reassurance. Chronically Ill in the Wild is my way of giving back, by sharing my real, everyday life, the good days and the hard ones, and the tools, routines, and moments that help me get through.
This space is about learning, adapting, and finding beauty and meaning in a life that looks different than expected. I’m still new to both disability and content creation, so thank you for your patience and kindness as I grow. I’m so glad you’re here.
