Butterfly Greeting Card

I was diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome; Hyper mobility type with Classical symptom crossovers when I was 11 years old. The condition remained a relatively mild case up until right before my 19th birthday. Soon after that birthday I would develop and be diagnosed with Dysautonomia, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and several others, while my doctors and I are still seeking additional diagnoses and answers to my symptoms. My symptoms severity caused me to leave three different jobs that I loved and stop my college education. I have loved arts and crafts since I was a little girl and I decided that it would be a good idea for me to try to sell some of the things I make so that I can have some (even small) income. Due to my various limitations, I have wide range of arts and crafts that I like to create so I can taylor my activity to my abilities at the time. Crafting really helps me have a sense of purpose and accomplishment when my abilities are so limited by my health, it helps to be able to participate in something productive that I can do well, in spite of my condition.
