"...But You Don't Even Look Sick!"

I found out that my heart was failing in October 2007 at 25 years old.

About me: I am 27, i live in NYC, and I am on a non-stop quest for healing.
I have a chronic illness called Scleroderma / Mixed Connective Tissue Disease. I also have a pacemaker/defibrillator implanted in my chest.

The Scleroderma has affected my heart causing it to be 70% covered in scar tissue.

The docs tell me there is no cure for Scleroderma. Yet, I am determined to cure myself.

Thanks for being in my world

Running In Heels

I’ve been telling my story here for three years now. This week a shortened version was published in a London online publication called Running In Heels. A friend of mine, Kaiti, writes for them and felt compelled to share my story…

The support that I’ve gotten in return is overwhelming. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for caring, and for taking this journey with me…
