My Life with Stripes

Hi! I'm Alana, and I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.

Ehlers Danlos Syndrome is a connective tissue disorder, which basically means the stuff that's supposed to hold me together, doesn't. So I dislocate joints, can bend every joint in my body way further than it's supposed to bend, and I can twist into almost impossible shapes. But it's not all party tricks and painful dislocations, there's a lot in between. This is my life with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.
