​

Everyone’s experience is different, and every story deserves the chance to be heard.

Your Voice is a My2FeetandIBD community project created to give people living with IBD, chronic illness, invisible illness, disability and other health challenges a space to share their experiences in their own words.

You might want to share your diagnosis journey, treatment, surgery, recovery, setbacks, everyday challenges, achievements, relationships, work, mental wellbeing, or simply something you wish other people understood.

There is no right way to tell your story.

Your experience does not have to look like anyone else’s to matter.

Why Your Voice Matters

Lived experience can show the parts of illness and disability that statistics and medical information do not always capture.

By sharing real stories, we can help others feel less alone, raise awareness, encourage understanding and remind people that there is no single way to live with illness or disability.

Your Voice Stories

Below you’ll find stories shared by members of our community in their own words.

Each story reflects one person’s experience, perspective and journey.
