Story
Hey! My name is Rylie (aka Dino Cow) Im 19 and I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.
Ehlers Danlos is a genetic condition that I was born with, and it affects my everyday life. I have joint instability, which means that I dislocate my hips & shoulders on a daily basis. I have extreme hypermobility, which over the years has put a huge strain on my joints. I have chronic pain in my back, hips and knees.
I also have other mobility affecting conditions, such as my internal tibial torsion, which causes me to walk with my toes touching inwards. This also makes my walking very unstable and unsafe.
My trusty Kuschall has lasted me 7 great months, where I have been more confident leaving my house, knowing I cant fall and hurt myself. Now, however, it has come to a point where it is just broken and unsuitable for me. I fundraised 2k (minus gofund me reductions) and my chair has come over budget, which is why im trying to raise the extra money! I have put my deposit down on my chair so this money is to help pay it off before its delivered.
I just want to thank everybody inn advance, for helping in whatever way you can, I am grateful beyond words.
