So, I'm Katie! I like to raise awareness about Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). It’s a rare, complicated multi-systemic syndrome. You’ll rarely see me without a smile! I hope I can help you learn more about EDS.
That's fascinating Katie. Well done for your contribution to Disability Pride Month! I've learnt so much from your channel.👍 Have a nice Sunday....the sun is coming out! Take care, Neville 👏🦓👏🌹🌹🌹

Hi again Katie, I'm pleased your appointment was rearranged without too much delay. As with all orthotics sometimes just a small improvement can make a huge difference to the end user. You came away positive which I'm so pleased to hear. If it is more comfortable then that brings great benifits in wearability and day to day use.. From our own experiences the service provided has been from completely inadequate to excellent. I do hope you receive the latter. Best wishes & take care, Neville 🙂 🙃 🙂🌹🌹🌹

Hi Katie, a very informative video on an important day of the year! Based on your figures there may be around 20,000 children annually in the UK alone born with Scoliosis! As you've said before an early diagnosis is important, so that help can be provided. I believe the outcome can be very good if treated from an early age. 😊 Having the best support at home as you have is vital. Overcoming all the hurdles along the way and learning to focus on your abilities rather than disabilities. Having goals and working towards achieving them. 😊 These have made you the inspiration that you are ❤ I know I've become a better person since I have followed your journey,😊 (I wasn't too bad before😂😂) Always room for improvement. I hope today is a good day for you and your family 👪 Take care, Neville 🙂🙃🙂🍀🌹🍀

Hello Neville, I only wish I had more facts and info in the video but I was on a very tight short schedule for this so did the best I could in the time I had. It’s crazy at how many children have Scoliosis, and I agree. Early detection is brilliant especially with the waiting times for clinics nowadays which could mean the curvatures could get worse. Aww thank you: a lot of it with me is that I’ve not known any different and they monitored me closely growing up. Thank you for your support and lovely comment with the info. You and your family take care too. ☺️🦓♥️

A new message for 2024. I visited your KZread channel, Your content is just wow but the main reason the video goes viral is video SEO and promotion of your video targeted audience.

Aw thank you 🤗 it was definitely worth the pain and exhaustion seeing them again 🥰 I will try my best, thank you ♥️
@@dinkyktsedsdiaries5018 So pleased to hear Katie 💙🌹💙
Wow she's 15?! What a loyal companion 😍 xx
I know, I can’t believe she’s 15 either. Definitely been through a lot with her and I’d be lost without her. 😻 xx
It's definitely a lottery when it comes to who you end up dealing with and whether or not you get the help you need xx
That’s very true, some are great and some are not so great… xx
Gosh such powerful words. This was really well put together xx
Thank you lovely ♥️ xx
Hi Katie, i've been watching your videos over the last few days with interest. Marvelled at your ability to put your struggles into poetry. It was very moving ❤ So grateful to your Rheumatology Doctor for being so kind to you ❤ And reassured that you have Pixie to turn to in times of need ❤ "Once a fighter always a fighter" Take care, Neville 🙂🙃🙂🍀🌹🍀
Hi Neville, aww thank you. People have always said that I’m good at writing and it’s something I enjoy doing… expressing myself through words. ☺️ my Rheumy doctor is fantastic when I do see and speak to her although it’s been other ones who have spoken to me recently instead of her and I’m hoping it’ll be her again next time. Pixie is my feisty little fur baby always there for me 😻 you take care too 🥰🦓🤗♥️ ps thank you so much for the sponsorship on my dazzle walk 👩🏻🦽♥️
@@dinkyktsedsdiaries5018 Your welcome Katie. 😊🌹😊
I can relate to this so much 😥 xx
I’m sorry that you can relate to this too, feel free to message me on my page whenever and I’ll reply back asap xxx
Hi Katie, a great achievement for you. We'll done you and the College 👍It must have boosted your confidence no end. Loved the photos 👍🦓🌹🦓
I feel very proud of what I achieved. Especially when I got accepted into two different universities- one for journalism degree, and the other for combined honours degree in criminology, psychology and sociology. Thank you, 🥰🥰🏆🦓👩🏻🦽
Hi Katie, yes I recall you saying that there was a Hydrotherapy Pool at your local hospital and that was lost! I did read there was something similar at Kendal but that is much further to travel. A great shame! Take care and well done with your challenge 👏 Neville 🙂🍀🙂🦓🌹🦓
Hello Neville, yeah it’s a great little pool and it was always very hot. I was referred to the pool at Kendal but they couldn’t meet my needs so had to turn it down. For once a month, it would have been worth the trip 😀 could have a made a day out of it 😆 thank you. Got a Dazzle Walk this month which I can’t wait to do. Take care. 👩🏻🦽🦓😀♥️
@@dinkyktsedsdiaries5018 Oh that was unfortunate regarding the pool but do keep trying incase they could meet your needs at some point in the future. Hope the Dazzle Walk works out well for you Katie, weather etc behaves itself 🤞 Are you being sponsored for it? Count me in if you are! Best regards, Neville 🦓🌹🦓
Being online has really helped me too xx

Couldn't live without my heatpad! An essential piece of kit xxx
Mine is one of those that goes under your bed sheet. Can’t live without it! But struggle more when I’m away from home without it. Glad you have a heat pad that helps you xxx
ขอให้คุณหายดี

I was diagnosed with hEDS but we think it might actually be aEDS xx
Are you going to see them again to discuss about your suspicions? Trust your gut instinct. xx ♥️
They don't do genetic testing down here on the NHS and I can't afford to go private atm. We'll see in the future xx
Thanks for the information. Stay blessed!
You’re welcome. Thank you and the same to you too! ♥️
Your merch is so cool! I love seeing it showcased in your videos 🦓🌈 xx
Aww thank you Lou 🦓🤗🥰♥️ xx
Helen sounds like a wonderful occupational therapist, and it's inspiring to witness your commitment to your recovery.🏥💪
Dear Katie, I can understand your anxiety before the appt. If you have a splint for your left hand would that do away with the need for the bandaging that you currently have? 🤔 Judging by your appraisal of the other splint which you find comfortable, it bodes well for this one to! What the therapist suggested sound like an excellent idea 💡 I'm hoping it goes well for you. Take care, Neville 🤞🍀🌹
Hello Neville, yeah all of the trauma I’ve been through with this hand definitely made me feel anxious. I’m still a little sceptical about whether the splint will be completely comfortable and supportive. Although I’m remaining as positive as I can, at least she’s willing to try and not give up like they did at WH. I’m really liking the splint on my right hand and the Coban tape. Thank you. 🤞🏼🤗♥️
@@dinkyktsedsdiaries5018 Yes that was unforgivable how they treated you at Wrightington! Crossing everything for you this time 🤞🤞🍀🍀
Busy, challenging but EXCITING oh yes xx
Thank you. Yes, oh definitely!! xx
