Before the colonoscopies, before the surgeries, before the diagnosis — there were warning signs. Pain that didn’t make sense. Symptoms no one could explain. And a little Black kid who knew something was wrong… even when nobody believed her.
In this debut episode, Sunny Dee, RN, BSN, and 20-year spoonie, takes us all the way back to the beginning — the childhood joint pain, the gaslighting, the dismissed symptoms, and the moment everything changed.
This one’s for every spoonie who’s ever been told “it’s just in your head.” Spoiler alert: it wasn’t.
So grab your heating pad, sip something warm, and settle in.
My name is Sunny Dee, and this… is Spoon Space.
Spill the Spoon – Your space for questions, tea, and tales.
With Extra Spoons,
Sunny Dee, RN BSN
