Story Network
Living Well with Ongoing Health Conditions
The Story Network is a community where parents of children and teens with an ongoing health condition or special need can read and tell honest, hopeful stories about day to day life, coping during crisis, staying strong, or getting emotional support. Parents around the world have positive stories to share—stories that can help us all know we have a network—we’re not alone. The idea for this project came from families seeking a way to show positive examples of living well with an ongoing health condition.
Interested in telling a story? You can choose which way to write your story—write about one of our topics or just write your own story about a topic of your choice. You may also submit poems. We encourage you to submit a photo of family life, pets, art or other relevant image to accompany your story or poem. Please review our guidelines and writing rules before submitting your story.
