#HAWMC Day 8: “If your health condition was an animal, what would it be? Is it a real animal or make believe?”
Not to be confused with a previous #hawmc post regarding my mascot…Purella a Purple Painted Pony.
The “animal” that would represent my health condition(s) <——plural would be a unicorn (pronounced “you-knee-korn”…because it’s more fun and has a slightly sarcastic edge to it).
“D’awwww…because it’s beautiful and prancy and all?!?”
Wait, what?!?! We’re talking about Lupus, here, and it’s plethora of secondary syndromes. The you-knee-korn is, in fact, an aggregate representation of them all. In one. And it’s an ass-hat.
To others, they can’t see it.
It merely does not exist.
To me…well…look up the historical references to “Unicorn”…they’re in just about every faith…
Now look….closer:
Bible: “…the creature was variously represented as a kind of wild ass…”
China: the qilin – “… it is a hybrid animal that looks less unicorn than chimera, with the body of a deer, the head of a lion, green scales and a long forwardly-curved horn…”
India: “…produces a one-horned horse sometimes called a cartazonos, meaning…”rhinoceros”…”
So. Now I’ve got some freak kind of “thing”…sorta kinda like a deer body, lion’s head and scales built like a rhinoceros brick shit-house using the cover of a wild ass.
THAT…is lupus.
I would’ve said “a wolf in sheep’s clothing”…but that would have been too easy and way less fun. 😉

Hahaha! You’ve got me cracking up over here….love this!
I’ll bet it was also his killer-bug-eyes, right? 😉 I’m glad you got a chuckle from it! 😀
OMG this made me laugh! Not much humor found in this awful disease but you sure managed to dig some up! Thanks for brightening my day!
😀 I’m so glad you were able to have a chuckle!! I swear…it’s the killer bug-eyed look…True story. 😉 xo
That is great. Made me smile. I probably would have said porcupine because most days I fell prickly and some days I act prickly.
oooooOOOOOOooooo…..that’s a good one, too!! Porcupric….never mind. *shifty eyes* xox
I think the author of the pic must be him 🙂
