@MsDragonfire1992 3 года назад
The main thing is hey did start to fulfill those dreams when they could and that she lived life to the fullest she possibly could even with how poorly she was. It's such sad news but I did watch a video once she did about the TPN saying how it would only help temporary and at some point she would probably start to go into heart failure been on it long term. But it helped her in the time she had it and she managed to gain weight and become more healthy in that time which probably enabled her to survive a little longer.

They moved into their home I would say a year ago. That was her dream. To be independent on their own. I do believe they did that. Just sad they didn't have many many more years together. But in all honesty we don't know exactly what she had went thru this last year and half. Emotionally and physically. She tried so damn hard that we know.. I honestly didn't know that having to use a tpn wasn't good.. loved this girl. So many prayers and thoughts to her family..

eco2geek Yes it can be, there are many forms of EDS Syndrome, I have the worst one, Vascular EDS with extreme hyper mobility. If I wrote on here every fatal thing that I have happening in my life and the things that are going to cut my life short we would be here forever. But you just try to deal with it, I will tell you that the pain I have from morning til night is excruciating and debilitating. If you please for the sake of those that suffer this kind of thing...don’t be so flip about it. You never know what is around the corner for all of us. Have a great life, I truly mean that.

@@BlueBirdsSong I have my own issues -- that's why Amy Lee Fisher's channel got in my recommends -- but they're nowhere near as bad as hers or yours. I do have a tendency to be facetious, it is true. For example, I've told people that if anyone could "win" RU-vid for having the worst physical problems, it would be Amy. But the things she has to do on a daily basis just to stay alive are not funny at all. Pain is not funny. I guess being "flip" is just a way to deal with reality. Sometimes it offends people, but it's not meant to. Good luck and take care of yourself.

Amy, congratulations to you and Tom on the new house! I'm so sorry to hear that you're struggling with your mental health. I hope that you are able to take as good care of your body and mind as possible. The isolation is so hard. I've also felt my mental health taking a dip during the pandemic, which I wasn't expecting and really surprised me. I'm an introvert, so I figured that being at home all of the time would be like a paradise, but the isolation really does take a toll. I don't have a debilitating chronic physical illness to deal with like you do, so I can't imagine how hard this is for you. I know that appearances are not an accurate indicator of wellness, but you looked really nice in this video. You were so vulnerable and brave when you talked about how you struggled with body image issues due to being malnourished. It seems like you've gained some weight, and I'm so happy for you!

Who says she's faking it? I heard a few things one was that she caused a lot of health issues with her (alleged) eating disorder and that combined with complications from EDS (like infection from her central line) was what killed her. I have no idea if any of that is true but that's what I heard. As another young woman with a severe life limiting chronic illness, I'd rather believe her. RIP Amy.

I don’t have EDS but I feel the same way about having children because of my mental health issues that are hereditary. I couldn’t ever put another human through this. To me, no one deserves this shit. So my mental health issues die with me whenever that day may come. And I’m so glad my boyfriend also doesn’t want children. It makes living so much easier.

Watching you brings a smile to my face and a warm glow to my heart (unless that was a heart attack 😂). It saddens me to hear that you're not doing well, or having a rough go of it. I wish there was something that could be sent or said to get you feeling better. This community of people you've fostered, built, created love you and wish you only the best. We love all your posts, and look forward to hearing from you, but your mental, emotional, and physical health is more important than our desire for content. You've done so much for so long already, no one can begrudge you this little break. I've been home bound the last 3 months. I've not left the house. I have a compromised immune system, and I live in the U.S. so I just go out onto my porch or backyard when I feel the walls start to close in. I've talked too much, just wanted to let you know that you have people who still care, and will be here when you're ready to come back.

I love your openness and all of your videos. I follow both channels. I’m personally going through some health issues and thinking back I’ve had a lot of the related conditions to EDS. I’ve asthma, have had “growing pains” flexible joints since I can remember, I’ve ibs I suffered terribly with vertigo as a teenager, I don’t heal quickly... so so many but my gp just doesn’t take it seriously. I’ve had an ongoing issue since Christmas with my bodies temperature regulation, so I’ve been feeling so ill all of the time. Your videos give me hope that one day I will get to the bottom of things and that I’m resilient and can push through whatever comes ❤️ It’s amazing you have Tom and such a support network around you ❤️

I have Classical EDS , I’ve had 2 children , I had my son before I had my diagnosis (took til I was 33 to get one) , I needed an emergency c-section but sustained nasty pelvic injuries , my son had clicky hips which can be a sign that the mother has EDS or indeed that the child does , he was fine . 4 years later I chose to have another baby but was monitored very carefully with a planned c-section at the end , things went well . My daughter does have EDS but copes really well , it doesn’t seem to affect her digestive tract like me ( I’m on TPN due to Gastroparesis) but she does suffer with reflux which is how I used to be . She has a fighting spirit that I’m in awe of , despite doctors and specialists advising her to give up dance she never did even after needing surgery on her feet . She did 4 years at uni and is now a dance teacher , I am so proud of her x

I suspect I have EDS, as I have several chronic illnesses/digestive autoimmune diseases an hypermobile joints. My son is even more hyper mobile than me and when he turned 3 I became concerned. He’s 5 now and more recently when he’s stood up, his hip has popped out of place for a second. He’s extremely hypermobile(we’ve already had to ER incidents with joints), has had severe digestive issues and reflux since birth along with other complaints. I’m 99% sure he has it. First few drs were like “oh yeah his joints are hypermobile,” but didn’t say anything past that. How did you receive a diagnosis for your children?

My rheumatologist diagnosed me with hypermobile type Ehlers Danlos syndrome, and advised against seeing a geneticist. He could rule out vascular type Ehlers Danlos syndrome because a previous highly invasive surgery would've killed me if I had vEDS. With the deadly vEDS ruled out, and hEDS being the most likely, it would be both expensive and irrelevant which of the other possible types I might have - treatment would be the same either way: EDS is treated and managed symptomatically. (This is also the reasoning why most medical insurance plans will not pay for genetic testing for EDS.) I recently was chosen to be a part of the HEDGE project to identify the genes responsible for hEDS by sending in my DNA. Through this, I'm going to end up being genetically screened for all of the other types of EDS for free, so now I'm extra thankful that I didn't pay to get tested back then.

I don't have EDS, but as someone else with a chronic illness (in my case, severe endometriosis), I can relate a lot to your mental health just completely tanking. I haven't been able to see my partner since February now, and with surgery appointments coming up, I likely won't get to until August, and the thought is enough to want to make me scream until my throat's raw. I'm grateful for the internet and being able to still see and hear people, but not being close to another person is so difficult. I hope you stay safe and I'm wishing you all the best.

I really feel for you having that, I don't but a family member does and nothing ever seems to help it's hard seeing her in so much pain and she regularly has to cancel plans with people last minute then feels guilty even though she shouldn't, It's not something that seems to have enough awareness given to it either.

First off, I think you answered my question from Instagram, and thank you very much its so helpful to hear about these things and feel relatable. I would love to hear more about your symptoms as a child/teenager and how those evolved with your other conditions as well because I'm in a similar boat as you described with your teenaged years.

Also so happy to see you! Yay! 🤗I think mental health issues have become more widespread and worse during this pandemic. Therapists must be keeping busy by phone or Zoom or whatever. If you’re in a down spell and don’t have the energy to vlog, maybe keep a brief prepared statement to post, just saying you’re not feeling well (or something you choose to say). I’m sure that many of us from out here who do really care would send encouragement and love, or maybe share a funny video. Sometimes that connection to empathy and compassion can help a lot. 💖

I have EDS and (compared to healthy people) an incredibly high pain tolerance, I'm used to ribs and vertebrae pretty much permanently being out but I dislocated my hip for the first time a few weeks ago and I literally couldn't roll over in bed the next morning to reach pain killers. I cannot imagine life dislocating my hip twice within two months, much less up to 50 times a day plus all your other problems. I hope you realise how fucking strong you are being able to function with and live through that
