Living Between Shadows and Light: My Journey with Muscular Dystrophy
Hello Hive,
I’m starting this blog under the name @shadowsnlight — not to hide, but to share more openly than I ever have.
I live with a condition called Becker muscular dystrophy. It affects my muscles, my mobility, and many parts of daily life. I use a wheelchair, I manage health challenges like anxiety, high blood pressure, and I’m learning how to care for both my mind and body every single day.
But this blog isn’t just about illness. It’s about light — the moments of peace, creativity, and meaning I’ve found along the way.
I used to post on Steemit years ago. Now, I’m starting fresh — to share stories, photos, reflections, and honest thoughts from my perspective.
No name. No photo. Just real life, told simply.

If you’ve ever lived with something invisible, or felt isolated by your body or mind, this space is for you too.
Thank you for reading. I look forward to growing gently here.
