“Living with fibromyalgia meant constant battles with pain, insurance, and doctors who didn't believe me. Our Alder life care manager documented everything, found providers who listened, and helped my family understand why I couldn't just 'push through.
She gave me back my voice when I was too exhausted to fight."
