Welcome!

It has been a whirlwind few months for my health. I am learning what it really means to heal amidst all the unknowns and while my journey continues on. It hasn’t been easy but even in the uncertainty, there is progress.

Invisible Disabilities Week (October 20-26) is a reminder that not every struggle can be seen and not every strength needs to be proven. For so many of us, the hardest battles happen quietly in moments of fatigue, pain, or isolation that others might never notice.

After years of pain and failed treatments, I took the biggest leap of faith by getting a spinal cord stimulator. The week of the trial was surprising and it gave me something I hadn’t felt in years: hope.

After years of failed treatments and unbearable pain, I stood at a crossroads: give up and accept this as my life or try something I was scared to try.

After the progress made and the unexpected hope, one small accident sent me spiraling again. I share how m CRPS returned, what living with an invisible illness feels like, and how I am learning to find strength.

The start of my chronic illness journey. From gymnastics to the first signs of CRPS and my resiliency.

My birthday this year reminds me that life may look different with chronic illness, but my dreams are still alive, just unfolding on their own timeline.
