When someone says "I hope you beat it" after I tell them I have an incurable disease:

💩👎

@brianvastag The company I currently work for was started by the CEO because she developed a serious chronic disease. (She’s still able to work but needs some flexibility in her work schedule and location [remote vs mandatory onsite]).

She got very frustrated telling employers about her diagnosis but still getting insistent questions about how soon she’d be “better” and able to work 70-hour weeks 😖

To add insult to injury, we’re in a healthcare-related field!

Take care of yourself...best wishes with your condition.

@Neekerbreeker It really breaks some people's brains to consider the possibility of being sick forever.
