translucent one – Staying Connected

Lynley is 21 years old and was diagnosed with vEDS (Vascular Ehlers Danlos Syndrome) following a lung collapse, or pneumothorax. Her dad also had vEDS, which was a clue in for the diagnosis. She tells us her story with vEDS and various issues she has had over the years, including a retina detachment, and how her outlook has changed since diagnosis.
