Mighty Member since March 2018
I'm a mother, writer, advocate and encourager! I'm a mom to a 12 yr old boy, I also have a sweet little beagle! I write about my journey with multiple chronic illnesses. I love to laugh, probably the most positive and encouraging in my group of friends. I strive to find the positive in each day. I'm an advocate for Gastroparesis, Feeding tubes and body positivity. I also strive to advocate for my other conditions as well: Dysautnomia, Ehlers Danlos, Endometriosis, Lyme Disease, Thin Basement Membrane Disease. My goal is to build a support system, where we encourage and empower each other. Where we can reach for our goals, and achieve our dreams. A community where we have friends, support and understanding. I've been nominated for 5 WEGO Patient Health Awards, I've also had several blogs featured on DSN's Website. I host my own website/blog called LivingwithDys. I also run the facebook groups "Finding Hope while Battling Chronic Illness" and "Be-Youtiful Body Positivity". I want to help, encourage and empower those with chronic illness. I want to mentor others, guide them, and help them build a network of support and friendships. I'm working to start a movement empowering and encouraging those battling chronic illness. BeYOUtiful. Embrace who you are.
