💙 Wrapping up HPN Awareness Week with one final message that means so much to me:
Chronic illness and thriving can co-exist.
Living with HPN hasn’t been easy, but it’s also taught me strength, resilience, and gratitude I never knew possible.
Awareness isn’t just about the medical side — it’s about showing that life with chronic illness can still be beautifully blended with purpose, joy, and hope. 💚
Thank you to everyone who shared, learned, and supported awareness this week.
Your engagement truly helps others feel seen and less alone.

💚 As HPN Awareness Week comes to a close, I wanted to share what life on IV nutrition really looks like — beyond the awareness posts and hashtags.
It’s not always easy, but it’s real, and it’s mine.
HPN isn’t the end of the story… it’s what gives us the chance to keep writing it. 💚

💚 This week is HPN Awareness Week!
I’ve been sharing about it through my social media channels all week, and wanted to share a little here too.
HPN (Home Parenteral Nutrition) is IV nutrition that sustains people who can’t absorb enough nutrients through their digestive tract. It’s been part of my life for over 35 years — and awareness like this helps others better understand what living on HPN really looks like.
💧 Sometimes that means IV hydration days like this — making it all work between appointments and daily life.
Every infusion is part of what keeps me going. Grateful for the science, care teams, and community that make this life possible. 💚

💧 Real life on HPN isn’t always glamorous — sometimes it’s hydration days, appointments, and making it all work in between.
HPN has taught me more about resilience than I ever imagined — how to adapt, slow down, and find gratitude in small moments like this. 💚
Whether it’s TPN, hydration, or rest, every part of this journey matters.

Home Parenteral Nutrition (HPN) provides essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream for those who can’t absorb food normally.

It’s officially #HPNAwarenessWeek 💉 — a time to celebrate strength, science, and survival.
This week I’ll be sharing “Did You Know?” facts about Home Parenteral Nutrition (HPN) — a form of life-sustaining nutrition for those of us whose digestive systems can’t absorb food normally.
I started TPN in 1988 at just 8 years old, and decades later I’m still here, still advocating, and still grateful. 💕
