I Am What A Person With An Invisible Illness Looks Like Shirt

I Am What A Person With An Invisible Illness Looks Like Shirt! I stood there embarrassed, shamed and not sure what to say and do. Nobody even gave me a chance to explain. I just ended up turning my cart around and walking away. Feeling humiliated. Sure, I could have gone into a big explanation and told them why. I could have shown them my cold, purple limb that was hiding under my jacket and mitt. At the time though I just wanted to get out there. I have experienced this shame before in a handicap spot, but never in a store like this and so ganged up on.

A little later I went to the pharmacy where they know me well. I noticed the lady that chimed in and helped the elderly lady was 2 people behind me. I Am What A Person With An Invisible Illness Looks Like Shirt! I went up to the desk where the cashier knows me by name and my injury. She has a quite a loud voice, just one of those people that talk loudly. Haven`t seen her in a few months, so she was asking me a bunch of questions about my nerve blocks and other treatments. Also, asking how I was managing the pain.
