WRAP for Chronic Pain: Good for What Ails You

I Don’t Recall Signing on for This
When I was young girl, allowed to spend time in the world of make-believe with nowhere else to go in my reveries but the land of tomorrow, I pretended to be a princess. I dreamed about becoming a bareback rider or an actress performing on a gilded stage, taking my bows while an adoring audience gently pelted me with roses. I don’t remember ever thinking, "Maybe I’ll be a single mother, a person with mental illness, a recovering addict, and yes, I want to live with chronic pain." Funny how life has a way of pummeling you with lemons—and what comes floating down like a feather just as you raise your fist to shake it at the heavens? A recipe for lemonade.
