When I checked my email this morning, I saw the emails telling me my writing had been accepted and published to Invisible Illness, the publication on Medium I applied to.

I Thanked God, and burst into tears!

So, if you went to their site on Medium, you would see these three shots scrolling down some:

You burst into tears. Bless!

I'll read it tomorrow, but I'm sure it will be brilliant.

I get emails from from Medium most days, and the articles are top quality.

This must feel so good. Well done!

Thank you all so much! It's exciting and wonderful to know my hard work to improve my writing is paying off, plus, hopefully it will help people. If I can help someone do better, feel better, live better, then I am thrilled. xoxoxoxox

That is so cool! I have been thinking of submitting to Medium for patient advocacy and healthcare reform topics. I had my first peer-reviewed medical journal publication about a year ago and I remember how it felt to see your name "in print" for the first time. And have people cite your work. It's this feeling of accomplishment.

Congratulations. You should be very proud.
