I saw some new people around since I've been here last so I thought I'd do an intro.
My name is Stephanie, I am almost 22 and I live in CT. I am currently a full-time college student who is studying to be a librarian! I want to work with people who have disabilities.
I like to knit and bead, and I collect handmade dolls from Asia that I love to play with. This link is to my photo portfolio where I post pics I take of my dolls and miniatures www.flickr.com/photos/reinedelaseine14.
I have a specific gene deletion that is still called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome but it's a combo of Classical, Hypermobility, and Vascular. I have the dislocations, the skin problems and Dysautonomia but I also have many Vascular signs and a severe vision impairment.
I also have Asperger's Syndrome, which is a type of autism. It has its challenges but also many gifts
I have four dogs, two Basset Hounds and two Miniature Dachshunds...one of them is all mine! Here is my Porkchop!
I am one of the mods here...don't hesitiate to contact me!
