" I am in a wheelchair but I don't let it hold me back. I actually have a disease called Myasthenia Gravis, that I've had since age eight. If you have any questions or want to know anything about it feel free to ask me. You can also look at my website for more info about it and myself www.giraffegirl.com"

She's dealing with a bad dice roll better than 99% of the people on this planet.

From her website I'm very impressed, especially the last tidbit on this page:

"I am 23 years old and was diagnosed at age 8 with the neuromuscular disease called Myasthenia Gravis. It is an autoimmune system illness that progressively has gotten worse over the last 15 years to the point of putting my life in jeopardy on several different occasions. It causes muscle weakness in all my muscles and It affects my walking, chewing, swallowing, breathing, eyesight, talking, coordination, and physical stamina. It also makes me consistently weaker and less able to do for myself as time has gone on. Over the years we have tried every possible treatment for this disease you can think of, with little or no success.


In January of 2004 I was put in ICU on a respirator which breathed for me due to my Myasthenia Gravis, which was in crisis. In June I had another similar incident and had developed pneaumonia and was yet again put back in ICU on a respirator and told I wasn’t going to make it. All my friends and family were told to come say goodbye to me. It was devestating for them, but miracles happened, and I recovered yet again.

Ive had over 100 plasmapheresis treatments (see MYASTHENIA GRAVIS SECTION FOR DETAILS) in my life. I take a string of medications which include high dose steroids and immunnosupressants which are hard on the body and create bad unwanted side affects. I have done chemo therapy to try to help this disease, but with little improvement. Because of the high dose steroids and a deadly eating disorder (Compulsive Overeating and Bulimia) I have gained an ungodly amount of weight. I am in an electric wheelchair because of my disease since I was 9 years old.



There is a surgery that can help my disease called a Thymectomy which removes the thymus gland located behind the heart . It is a major surgery and I had it when I first got sick at age 8 (had the surgery on my 9th birthday.) Unfortunately the thymus has regrown back which worsens my disease, but at this point and stage there is no way to remove it and removing it would not be very beneficial. I have undergone 20 Total Body Irradiation treatments which has not improved my disease, and was considered experimental. My disease has progressed throughout the years, and is attacking my respiratory to the point where I go to the hospital Emergency room frequently with respiratory failure and even the slightest cold/flu/infection or even stress can trigger an exasurbation of my MG. I use a bipap at night for my breathing and also in the day sometimes when it is labored.

It has been a struggle everyday just for me to live a decent quality of life and am not guaranteed that I will live a full life, but I never give up hope because at the end of the day, the time here i spend with loved ones, giving inspiration and motivating change is completely worth it, even if I die tomorrow. I believe there are no excuses in life, and there are people out there suffering far worse then me. It could always be worse so keep the faith.!"

"Must not be looking for Intimate Encounter"

I thought that went without saying?

 

[flint]

Consider yourself lucky. Use her as inspiration to push your limits, face your fears (ie approaching etc.) Not everybody has the opportunity to even do that as you can see.

wow that brought a tear to my eye....

People don't know how lucky they are nowadays.

 

[Desert Fox]

Damn man, these people sure have heart and a ton of faith... and dedication to just LIVING. Pretty incredible when you really think about it and comparing it to AFCs not being about to approach a little girl.

Completely undeserved. There's a difference between this girl and a real fat slob. She's not responsible for her condition.

Myasthenia gravis - is a neuromuscular disease leading to fluctuating muscle weakness and fatiguability. It is an autoimmune disorder

From Wikipedia.


At least read the profiles and try to understand before you make fun.

 

[Phat]

if any of you guys here have problems with dealing with rejection after seeing this than seriously just end your life.

 

[thedude4242]

the thing is if she wasnt in a wheelchair or dealing with a disease something could be said, but hey I got to give her credit. looks like she is not making any excuses.

Who gives a fvck HOW she got fat? She's a fvcking balloon.

 

[Julius_Seizeher]

Oh yes, give her a medal and name a foundation after her, it's so noble how she uses her illness to wh0re for attention, sympathy, and ideological impunity on the internet.

Really. I can't see that for myself. Thank you for helping me with that.

Let's pretend you were in a wheelchair, and you were immobile. What would you do?

This thread is showing the best, and the worst, of this forum.

 

[Semtex]

She's got more balls than 99% of the guys here...

Katatonia is 26 years old, yet all he can muster is call disabled people names, something I'd loathe to do even when I was in kindergarten and didnt know any better. Seriously, go kill yourself.

 

[sketchy]

more power to her, least she isn't afraid to hide who she is.

 

[Julius_Seizeher]

"A good deed which stares upon itself in the mirror turns to stone."

I am not unsympathetic to her condition, and I can take inspiration from her positive attitude as well. My problem is that it is SHE who is promoting HERSELF as a heroine, that's giving me the bad taste, know what I mean?

Aww sorry Mr. White Knight did I hurt your girlfriend's feelings? Apologise to her for me.
