Original caption

Lymphedema check-in. 🤍 Not gonna lie… my leg is HUGE right now. My confidence is definitely taking a hit, and it’s been one of those weeks where I just want to hide it. But this is real life with lymphedema. Some days are better than others, and today is just a hard one. I’m gonna keep fighting, keep treating it, and hope tomorrow is a little kinder. 🫶🏾
