Hi, I'm Monica.

Hi, I'm Monica.

Hi, I'm Monica.

My life unraveled without warning.

Rebuilding? That’s where I got my edge back.

 

I’m what medicine calls a zebra: rare, dismissed, and often misunderstood.

Craniocervical Instability (CCI), Chiari Malformation, and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) were my beginning, not my ending.
