This picture makes Emily giggle! This is Lazy Larry our cat when he was little and it's one of many pictures that I've put together in a book to show Emily when nothing else has worked with her pain. I'm a firm believer that laughter helps.
Emily has just turned 14 and lives in Texas. She has nerve damage in her legs, severely in her left leg below the knee. This has triggered RSD type II in her left foot, foot drop and contracture in her hamstring and toes.Since I started this blog back in March Emily's RSD has spread to her other foot, both knees, her arms and hands.
Although she has this crippling disease Emily tries to keep as positive as she can. She has an amazing spirit, a huge heart and strength that you rarely even see in an adult.
