My deepest sympathies to the loved ones of #StephanieAston, whose far-too-soon passing illuminates how #WomensPain and #InvisibleIllness are dismissed by medical professionals the world around.
While I have a less lethal form of #EDS than Aston, I have experienced firsthand the shock, surprise, and denial that my symptoms elicit from providers. Without greater awareness about this rare disorder, more women will suffer and die.
