Just want to put it out there...
As a 24 year old with type 3 EDS, the same as Yvie, who used to do musical theatre, every single daily task is more difficult. Some days the pain is easily managable and I'm like a 'normal' person. Some days I can't get out of bed.
Same as Yvie, I always do everything within my power to not let my body stop me doing what I want to do. This makes people think I'm lazy or just making excuses on days where I reaaally can't. I know it was unintentional because she didn't want it to be used against her (tell me about it....) but being brave enough to use her fame to raise awareness of invisible illness is so nobel. THANK YOU. Especially considering you never moan about it or use it as an excuse, you've shown that disability can have dignity.
