Invisible, Until I'm Not: Essays on Illness and Care

Invisible, Until I'm NotLiving with chronic illness often means living unseen.In Invisible, Until I'm Not, Kathryn M. B. Johnson writes with honesty and quiet clarity about life inside an invisible body––shaped by pain, caregiving, grief, and the slow work of resilience.Through a series of deeply personal essays, she explores what it means to keep moving forward when the body refuses to cooperate, when loss reshapes the future, and when the world expects strength that cannot always be given.These essays do not offer easy answers. Instead, they offer recognition.For readers who live with chronic illness, carry invisible burdens, or walk beside someone who does, Invisible, Until I'm Not is a reminder that survival itself is a form of courage––and that the stories we tell about pain can also beccome stories of presence, faith, and endurance.Perfect for readers of reflective memoir and personal essays about illness, resilience, and caregiving.
