About the Creator
Hey 👋 ! Today is 14/06/2026, marking my 8th month as an autoimmune disorder teenager patient (well, probably, since there hasn't been a definitive diagnosis yet).
Autoimmune disorders vary wildly from person to person. Luckily, I only dealt with some recurring fevers when things first started, with no other pains. Still, I know there are so many people suffering from this disease with symptoms much worse than mine. I hope that after finishing the storyline on this website, you now understand this disorder a bit better and feel a little more empathy toward those who are going through it ❤️.
Lastly, you might be wondering how on Earth a teenager managed to build such a "fascinating" website (pls say it's fascinating!). Well, the truth is I love coding but I'm not exactly an expert, so I used the AI coding tool Cursor. I even paid 20 dollars for the monthly plan—God knows it's expensive for me 😭, but it's honestly so good and totally blew my mind (and no, this isn't an ad!).
Anyway, I absolutely love how this website turned out, and I really hope you enjoyed it! 😉
