"These are stories of hope and resilience, of strength under adversity, of self-reliance and new-found sources of support. They offer one core message to all who suffer from the diverse and difficult manifestations of EDS: You are not alone." - Dr. Clair Francomano, MD "Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is another form of the human body. Just as there are tall people, short people, dark skin colored people, and light skin colored people, each with their own set of medical issues - similarly there are hypermobile people and not so hypermobile people who have different medical issues. Our understanding of EDS has improved, but we still have a lot of work to do. While the medical world works on understanding Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, people with EDS have provided us with stories of courage and ingenuity. These stories give others and doctors the strength to find solutions." - PRADEEP CHOPRA, MD "As a physical therapist who works with many patients suffering from EDS, I've seen firsthand how isolating and frustrating EDS can be. Along with a more knowledgeable medical field, what these patients need most is an understanding that they are not alone and to be given hope. 'Our Stories of Strength' provides both community and hope and will be just as effective as any medication or exercise." - CHRISTOPHER GNIP, PT, DPT EDS is a group of heritable connective tissue disorders that can cause a wide variety of symptoms throughout different body systems; each unique in presentation to the individual.

This book was written for those diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. It can be difficult to navigate the complexities of this condition, and I hope this book will help to prepare you to take on the challenge of living life after the diagnosis. We are born with EDS, yet finally receiving a diagnosis is devastating to many of us. This book includes some personal stories, so that you will be able to see how others have dealt with the diagnosis and learned to live their lives as they have faced the challenge of EDS and overcame the obstacle of self-pity, to move forward into a new life. Faith is the backbone of this book and I hope that through faith you will also learn to cope with EDS.
