MY NAME IS CRYSTAL AND I'M 27 YEARS OLD, I LIVE WITH A GENETIC, PROGRESSIVE, NEUROMUSCULAR DISEASE CALLED SPINAL MUSCULAR ATROPHY 2. I'M DEPENDANT ON VENTILATOR, A WHEELCHAIR AND PEOPLE TO TAKE CARE OF ME. GROWING UP, I WAS IN AND OUT OF THE HOSPITAL AND THE STAFF BECAME MY OTHER FAMILY. I ALSO BATTLED CANCER WHEN I WAS YOUNGER AND WON. DESPITE ALL OF THIS, I GRADUATED WITH HONOURS AND WAS ABLE TO GO TO UNIVERSITY FOR A BIT. I TERACH IN SCHOOLS ABOUT WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE DISABLED AND THAT BULLYING NEEDS TO END.
I ALSO LIVE WITH ENDOMETRIOSIS, DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, PTSD AND UNKNOWN GASTRO ISSUES.
