SPOONIE STORIES
Spoonie Stories: Lara Cooper
My journey begun in 2022 when I was at a friend's house and passed out 4 times. Her sister is a nurse and I had a BP of 60/50 and a HR of 175 so she took me to the ER. There I lost function and feeling of my legs.
Spoonie Stories: Stephanie WAGGONER
My life has always consisted of me being active, until I started getting my illnesses.
When I was 10, I was playing softball and it would hurt to run all the time. Many doctors said I had asthma, but finally a pulmonologist figured out I had slipping rib syndrome. It felt like a relief to finally have a diagnosis.
