All the Pieces This is Me
This autobiography is my own personal, medical mystery journey with lots of ups and down's, good, bad and emotional. I explain my whole life from Birth to now at 38 years old, and how I eventually got all my known, rare genetic diagnosis, one being Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I say it as it is, and there is no beating round the bush. I have written my story to help others, who maybe struggling on their journey, to try and help them see you can still live, laugh and make the best of what you're given, and spread much needed awareness, of conditions/syndromes not just to the general public, but to medical professionals too, and show how damaging medical gaslighting can be. You will read and see some unpleasant things, but I have written the raw truth and my frustrations along with a lot of good times and how keeping a positive frame of mind in such hard times really does help, although hard work. I hope this book helps bring invisible conditions more visible by knowing just because you can't see something doesn't mean it's not there or real.
