Erica was diagnosed with Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, or VEDS, about eight and half years ago after a series of life-threatening medical events and the birth of her son, Reed. She discusses her colon ruptures, uterine rupture, and the discovery of 5 aneurysms that finally led to her diagnosis of VEDS. She talks about how her faith, her husband, her son, knowledgeable doctors, and a supportive community have helped her persevere and live positively despite of her diagnosis with VEDS.

Meg shares her diagnosis story with Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (VEDS), and talks about how it has impacted her perspective on life and parenting, and career as a nurse. She was diagnosed with VEDS 9 years after a life-threatening maxillary artery aneurysm. Following her diagnosis, her daughter Zoe was diagnosed and she became pregnant with her second child, Isaak, who also has VEDS.

Meg has become an amazing advocate for others with VEDS through volunteering her time and through her career.
