For many living with chronic illness, art is a healthy form of self-expression and self-care. Art can help us cope, connect to others, and break through self-perceived limitations. It can be difficult for others to understand our experiences, and through art we can bring our feelings to life. In this this gallery, we showcase the creative expressions from autoimmune warriors.
