EDS Awareness Month: See Me
May is Ehlers-Danlos Awareness Month and today in honor of it, I'm linking to my daughter's blog. She has written an incredible post about what it's like to live with EDS/Hypermobility, a disease we both share. Life isn't easy when you have a disease and her post is a great read for anyone that lives with a disease, especially an invisible disease. Her post is all about how friends, family and even strangers see her disease first before seeing her. As a mom, it breaks my heart. Please take time and read her post, it is gut-wrenchingly honest. This link will take you to her blog and the post. Emily Bare: See Me ... read more

Some ideas that I already have are: What I loved about today What I would change about today What I'm grateful for today Ideas for another day Coloring ... read more

Getting the Most out of Physical Therapy
If there is one thing this family knows about, it's physical therapy. For the past ten years, almost every year, at least one of us has been in physical therapy. Why? You name it! Sprained ankles, shoulder injuries, knee injuries, wrist injuries and not to mention knee surgeries, shoulder surgeries, etc. It's crazy! That's what happens when you live in a family of hardcore athletes and two people who have EDS. Currently, two of us are in physical therapy, Emily for her wrist and myself. I'm still at it, rehabbing my knees post surgery! Over the years, I've learned a lot about physical therapy and working with your physical therapist and the doctors. Hopefully what I've learned ... read more
