Please Support Me On My Journey

Hi everyone!!


I’m Katie and I’m an avid user of social media. Whilst I enjoy using social media for personal use and keeping in contact with my loved ones, there is a message throughout that is important to me. 

I have a connective tissue disorder called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. It is rarely known amongst medical professionals. Its sufferers are often not believed, and many spend years and years of misdiagnosis. Every day I live with chronic pain, discomfort and fatigue. I have various associated conditions because of EDS. EDS is a multi-systemic disorder that affects every part of the human body and its symptoms may vary from mild to life-threatening. There is no cure and it is progressive. 

There isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t talk about EDS; whether it’s how I’m feeling, my symptoms or sharing information about it. I do this by writing about it on my Facebook page, my blog and on my Twitter. I talk about it on my YouTube channel and mention it occasionally on my Instagram posts. I don’t want anyone to feel isolated, lonely and have no hope from having EDS. By voicing about EDS, more and more people will learn to understand and judge less. 

All I ask is that you can follow all of my social media so that together, we can raise awareness and support those who need it.

Child Prodigy

Image
It was just the other day when I came across a documentary by Keith Allen filming James Harries who is now known as Lauren Harries. Does the name ring a bell to you? He was the 80s/90s child prodigy who claimed to know about Antiques. He had thick, curly blonde hair and always wore a dicky bow tie. I'll post a picture of him as a young boy, I'm sure you'll remember him when you see him. Back to the documentary. James is now Lauren after a sex reassignment operation. I actually think she still seems confused and delirious. In fact the whole family are living in a world of fantasy, delirious, disfunctional and delusion. All the way through I kept an open mind, in a way, I kind of felt sorry for them. All those years ago, Mark and Kate must have been really desperate to push their youngest son into the limelight forging a claim that he could do antiquing at such a tender age. I thought it was good that Lauren had counselling during the treatment but when i

Children with Gadgets

Hello everyone, I've been thinking back to a few weeks back when I was having a conversation with somebody. The topic was about kids having technical gadgets like games consoles, kindles, iPads and so on.  Going back to when I was a child, we didn't have all of these. Yes we had an Atari but that was for the whole family and I was in my teens by the time we got it. I had actual children's toys like Lego, Sindy dolls, and other toys. For the days that it rained or was too cold, I'd spend hours playing with these toys and I enjoyed arts. I'd do painting, making things and writing stories.  I liked to play out on the street with the other kids on the street. There were skipping ropes, pogo sticks and that ball with the rope toy etc. It was so much fun and meant we  learnt how to be creative, socialising and getting the exercise needed.  Another thing that kinda annoys me is when parents give their little kids kindles and iPads or even putting a DVD on fo

Dating and Disability

Hi peeps!! How are you doing? I hope you're all keeping well and that life is treating you with love and kindness.  As I've been watching ITV2's Love Island and have continually be surrounded by couples whether it's friends, family or even celebrities, it's really made me think about dating.  Everyone makes it seem so easy and I know it's not, but that's how it looks to me. I'm thirty-two and it's been way too long (much longer than I dare to admit here!) since I dated anyone. I feel it's definitely gotten harder for me. In the last four or five years, my health has deteriorated which means I no longer go out on nights out, I don't go to any clubs and there's rarely a chance for me to meet anyone. Although when I used to go out night-clubbing; meeting someone who was heavily intoxicated, really didn't do any favours and it wasn't my preferred way of meeting someone. A few friends have suggested trying out dating apps/site
