Chronic Pain & Illness

Hi! I'm Jennifer LeBlanc and welcome to Live Art.fully.

Come along on my journey as I live life artfully while battling chronic pain and illness due to a chronic inflammatory disease called Ankylosing Spondylitis.

I write authentically about the challenges of inflammatory arthritis and how I am learning to rise above them with chronic gratitude.

I also write about motherhood, faith, loss and healing, and art and creativity.
