Hello Internet. I am your friendly neighborhood cyborg!

Welcome to my little blog.

I have been doing this whole chronically-ill-young-adult thing for awhile now, and I thought maybe some of my experiences could help someone else out there or make them feel less alone.

I live with Marfan Syndrome, Dysautonomia w/ Gastroparesis, Hypothyroidism, and Celiac Disease. It took me a long time and a lot of self-advocacy to get properly diagnosed with all of those conditions. I hope to write posts on a vast amount of topics related to my experiences with chronic illnesses.

And cat pictures. There WILL be cat pictures. My cat Ollivander is a fantastic floofball that I must share with the world. He is my dedicated little sidekick.
