Mighty Member since October 2016
I am a business owner, writer, actor, advocate, mom, wife and chronic illness warrior. I have several autoimmune diseases, such as, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Sjogrens Syndrome, Arthritis, Vasculitis and Fibromyalgia. I also suffer from several neurological conditions including Trigeminal Neuralgia, Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia, Occipital Neuralgia, Myoclonic/Focal Seizures, and Brain Lesions. My first symptoms started at age 11 so I have been sick most of my life. I have not let that stop me from pursuing my dreams, though it has not been easy. I have found a lot of comfort in reading stories from other chronic illness warriors and enjoy the opportunity to help others by sharing my stories as well.
