Thank you for bringing CRPS to the public. We are not alone.

Thank you for such uplifting messages. As an 8-year CRPS warrior with right leg CRPS, i can honestly say it takes every amount of courage just to get out of bed each and every day and face the world. You are an inspiration to all!!

Man this should be seen by way more people. I watch TED Talks all the time and this is way better than a lot I see with lots of views. You wanna know how tough women are? Watch this.

This woman is a hero. I honestly can't imagine carrying on like she is after what she's been through - this talk and her honesty is going to bring a lot of hope to people. What a legend.

"my pain has been my biggest teacher" ... those are the words of a resilient and strong human. not everyone has the ability to carry on like that, but the ones that do inspire the ones that struggle. this talk gave me a lot, thank you.

This is the best TED talk I've ever listened to. Everyone should hear this message. I'm sharing with everyone I know. What an incredible tool to utilize to shift perspective, work through trauma and come out on the other side, thriving and appreciative for our life journey - no matter how many ups and downs we've had.

It doesn’t matter what I do I will be in pain so why not do something positive...just pace myself. 😁 Brilliant as always. You voice what I am thinking.

Maybe now my mission is other. And now I can use the past to support me. But looking forward and enjoying other things in my life!
