This doesn’t bother me in a way that I’m fixated upon it, but it is something in the back of my mind; especially with regards to how outsiders view things.

For Mum…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM! I’m dedicating this post to the superwoman that is my Mother. It’s her birthday today so I thought what better time to acknowledge how amazing she is and thank her for everything she does for me. I wasn’t the easiest child to bring up, I was an angel (obviously), but when I…

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer Review
Anastasia Beverly Hills is pretty much the queen of brow products, so when the Brow Definer was released, I immediately added it to my basket and pretty much lived on my doorstep until it was delivered, (okay, slight exaggeration, but it was highly anticipated). I’ve got both the Dip Brow Pomade and Brow Wiz, so…

I’ve suffered with chronic pain for sixteen years, and here’s a few things that are shitty about it.

Best Friend Because
I’m dedicating this post to my best friend, my soul mate, the male equivalent of me, my darling John. We’ve been friends since secondary school, it’s been about sixteen years, which makes me feel old, but I’m so glad we were sat next to each other all those years ago in English class. Nice one,…
A Day In The Life: Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
This week it’s Hypermobility Syndromes Awareness Week #HMSAware and obviously it’s really important to me as I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Type 3. What many people don’t realise is that the HMSA (a bloody amazing charity) take all hypermobility syndromes into account, not just EDS, and it’s vital that the other hypermobility syndromes get enough attention…
