Ask Us Anything: Relationships with Chronic Illness Featuring KJ & Elaini

Dating, engagement, and wedding planning are all hard enough, and when you add chronic illness into the mix, it’s a whole new level! But help is on the way as engaged couple KJ & Elaini share everything they’ve learned leading up to the big day. The wedding bells are ringing in the not-so-distant future for these two, and you’ll be blown away by their unique thoughts on questions you sent in! “Does the right partner complete you?” “How do you combat discouragement in your season of waiting?” “How do you navigate wedding planning while juggling symptoms?”… They’re answering all of it and more!

We made a playlist to accompany this series because "in sickness and in health" hits different with chronic illness. This one goes out to the loves that see us through it all—the partners and burden-bearers and appointment-goers and soul mates. Be sure to "like" and "follow" to find all of our playlists in your Spotify library!
