EDS Awareness day 7

Day 7 – Celebrate a Win 


Some days it feels like winning is not in the cards, but if you really look hard enough you can find a win every day. Even if it is just surviving the day. That's a win!

***************************************************

I feel like I am winning right now by writing this blog. I am doing this to spread awareness about EDS, LGMD, and living with chronic illnesses in general. I needed a safe place to vent and speak my truth and this is it. I'm not doing it for fame or glory this is just my outlet to get out all the thoughts running through my head keeping me up at night. I am so grateful to you for being here to share this journey with me.


Join us on our Facebook group to celebrate your win! 

Whether a teeny tiny step or a giant leap, let's celebrate your win today. 

Let’s celebrate you!


I see you…

I hear you…

And I am so glad you are here ❤️

See something, Say something

  See something...say something... "See something, say something" is a phrase we have all heard. It is an important mantra that encourages people to report any suspicious activities or behaviors that they may observe. It's all about promoting safety and vigilance  in our communities. If you ever notice something that doesn't seem right, whether it is an unattended bag, suspicious behavior, or anything out of the ordinary, don't hesitate to report it to the authorities. They are trained to handle these sorts of situations and determine if further action is needed. This is excellent advice! Unfortunately, it also promotes people being skeptical of one another. Looking at other people thinking they may be up to something, even when they may have had the purest of intentions. Of course, if you see something suspicious say something but what if we could do more with it? I think it's time to change things up a bit. What if See something, say someth...

Happy new year a couple weeks late

New year, new you... Right? How about maybe we try something . . . a little different this year.  Maybe this year can be the year of self-love.  The year we finally recognize the things we accomplish every day. Even if it is just a day of rest. I don't know about you but I have spent most of my life being told what to do, what to think, how to be....with a body that just wont cooperate. So many rules, so many expectations.... I want this year to be different! This year lets parctice  Here are some suggestions to try to be just a little kinder to yourself this year... 1.

Make sure you are taking time to engage in activities you enjoy and don't steal all your energy. Things that bring you joy and relaxation. 2. Set Boundaries! Learn to s...

Word Vomit

Today we're going to talk a bit about teenagers. If you have one or have ever encountered one (some of you may have been a teen like this. ) I'm sure many of you have had similar or at least equally unpleasant encounters. I love them, but I sure as heck don't always like them!  Let's dive right in...  I was walking into the hospital with my 14-year-old daughter to see her doctor. It was a cane day. And as we were walking my daughter decided to strike up a conversation. That's kind of rare in itself so I got a little excited. However, the words that were about to come out of her mouth were, to say the least, slightly shocking.... The teenage specialty!  She said " Wow mom, you must really like those Mucklucks they cover your AFO's well. You almost look normal. Until you get to the cane. That makes you look more like an 80-year-old woman. Then again your face looks more like you're 20. So then it just looks like you've had a ton of plastic surgery to ...
