ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Both authors are passionate about raising awareness of invisible disability conditions and empowering others. They met following an introduction by a mutual friend (who wasn't aware that they both suffered from the same rarely diagnosed condition). The friend recommended Marcia's monthly networking event to Cassandra, who kept on missing the date due to not feeling well on the day. Marcia happened to post something on Facebook regarding EDS and this triggered Cassandra to message her directly. When they did eventually meet up there was an instant connection and they teamed up to create the YouTube channel EDS Unplugged and the rest, as they say, is history.
