About Me
My name is Michelle and I'm a 23 year old girl from Montreal, Quebec with Type 1 diabetes, thyroid disease and endometriosis, and a drug-induced movement disorder that affects coordination, walking, chewing, and holding things among other things. Part of my struggle has been intense muscle weakness, neurogenic bladder, GERD, extreme chronic fatigue, digestive issues, some which hasn't yet been completely figured out. I hope one day to be able to walk long distances without needing any mobility aids and return to school and back to a "normal" life that doesn't involve the hospital every week! For now I'm just fighting one day at a time to stand upright. This is my journey.
