Kelli Raleigh is a personal friend of mine whom I've deeply admired as long as I've known her. She's inspirational, fun, and has a deep love for the village of people she surrounds herself with. Kelli also has a chronic illness, and has been a single mom for most of her eight year old daughter Ruby's life.
We can all agree that mom-ing is hard for everyone, but I keep trying to imagine what the added layer of a potentially life threatening illness AND being a single mom must be like for a woman, and it makes me admire Kelli even more.
She's sharing stories about making the decision to be a single mom, parenting a gifted child, and facts about her illness, Type 1 Diabetes and what she's doing to advocate and fight against it.
