What we’re about
** This book club is currently at capacity and not accepting new members. We look forward to opening up to the public as soon as we can to bring in new members. Thank you for your understanding and patience!**
A book club especially for my fellow local Zebras and Chronic illness/pain warriors in the PNW (Oregon, Washington Area). The goal of the book club is to bring community, friendship, connection and hopefully a little fun to our lives! I plan to keep the group virtual for convenience. But if we end up choosing to want to get together in person at some point all the better!
I have a few rare health conditions (hEDS, Chiari Malformation) and a few not so rare. I am a mom to a 7yo boy and bonus mom to 3 other wonderful boys. 1 year ago I had a brain surgery that limits my energy and ability to drive too far. It takes a lot to manage pain and life of a mom and partner in this body. But I have learned that having community is a key to my mental health and well being.
If you find yourself struggling to stay hopeful in the midst of your health journey and in need of a local (yet virtual) community that understands your journey in some way and would simply like positive connections and some mental stimulation, this book club is for you!
