Instead of enjoying the freedom that comes with young adulthood, there is a whole population that struggles to reconcile their physical limitations with every day life. Three young adults share their own stories of dealing with delayed life plans, limited social lives, and the search for friends who “get” their physical disabilities. Tim, Stephanie, and Stephen give us a glimpse into their ongoing battles to find purpose and joy as they live each day with chronic illnesses. Their stories will encourage other young adults likewise struggling, and equip their friends and family to better understand their daily struggles.
