Writing Excuses

Chronic illness serves as a metaphorical backdrop for exploring personal vulnerability and societal threats. The character Audie's journey is marked by stages encapsulated in the acronym DREAM: denial, resistance, exploration, acceptance, and manifestation. Initially, Audie embodies denial by insisting on independence despite needing help.
