  • Title: What They Don't See.
    Author: Clemens CM.
    Journal: Health Commun; 2018 Sep; 33(9):1194-1197. PubMed ID: 28678538.
    Abstract:
    The author is currently living with a chronic autoimmune disease known as Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, which caused his hypothyroidism. Although this disease is most common in middle-aged women, he was diagnosed at age 23. This disease is unique, because it is not entirely visible to others. In this piece, he presents a personal narrative of his diagnosis process and utilizes poetic inquiry to demonstrate to readers what "they," meaning individuals without an invisible chronic autoimmune disease, don't see.
