Fun Fact: Obsessed With Crochet & Drawing


Before my medical retirement, I taught children with severe disabilities – a role I loved. Now, I share my experiences with disability and chronic illness on social media, write reviews and blogs for Access Your Life, and pursue my passion for creativity through crochet, drawing, and other crafts.

Get to know me

My life changed drastically in 2017 when I became unable to work due to severe fatigue, chronic pain, and some mysterious health issues I initially thought were normal. After three years of uncertainty, I was diagnosed with Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), and I’ve been navigating ongoing medical mysteries ever since.

Before I retired medically, I taught children with severe disabilities and loved my job. Now I share my life with disability and chronic illness on social media, hoping it helps others. When I have energy, I write reviews and blogs for Access Your Life – something I never expected, but writing posts helped me discover my true passion. I also enjoy crocheting animals, blankets, and cardigans, as well as drawing and other creative pursuits.
