The author has fought for a "normal" life for 77 years. It didn't become normal, but both interesting and meaningful in spite of her invisible enemies: Her own shame of not being like everybody else, and an environment - including the medical world - that was convinced her problems "were all in her head".
Her kind of EDS, the classic, only appears in 1 in 20.000 people. Some believe as few as 1 in 40.000. Other variations - there are 13 in all - are far more common. You may have heard of people who suffer from one of them. You may even know one.

After high school she got a MA in English and Spanish literature. She had a multitude of jobs from an early age - from gas station attendant to university teacher, translator, journalist, and writer.
Now lives in Spain with her third husband. Has one adopted child and a large number of "bonus children" from her husband's first marriage. A large family where nobody else has EDS.
She still writes - mainly for magazines. And she still occasionally spends hours in the emergency room.
