I’ve been thinking a lot lately about this page.
When I first started sharing my journey with FND, this space became somewhere I could be honest about the hard days, raise awareness, give others space to talk and learn, show the ups and downs, and everything in between.
I don’t know if this page still helps anyone, if anyone would still want me to share, or if maybe the time for that part of my journey has passed.
Maybe simply leaving this page here — as a reminder of how far I’ve come — is enough.
But if there is anything anyone would still
Today is FND Awareness Day 💛
I’ve been quiet on here for a long time… over a year actually. Life has changed so much in that time.
Living with FND hasn’t been easy, and there were moments where things felt overwhelming and uncertain.
FND is real. It’s challenging. But there is hope.
If you’re in the middle of it right now, please know that things can change. Progress might be slow, and it might not look how you expected—but there is light at the end of the tunnel.

You are not alone 🎄❤️
Happy birthday to my incredible husband ❤️
We are so lucky to have you in our life and on our team. Thank you for choosing us everyday and being the best partner in crime to both me and our daughter.
We love you beyond words ❤️
A lingering affect of my FND, is that I find groups of people overwhelming and anxiety inducing, this means sometimes my ability to process can be affected because I’m in flight mode awaiting a threat.
I try and position myself in spaces where no one can come up behind
that if you do this, it’s ok, you aren’t alone. Especially as we are approaching Christmas we’re group activities and larger events maybe taking place.
So to my fellow door watchers and anxiety induced observers, I see you and it’s ok to take your time,
For the last 3 years I have made a Christmas wreath with the amazing Milston Flower Barn.
I have gradually done more of my own wreath & been able to create something I’m happy with. This year was the most I managed to do independently and I’m really proud of the result ❤️
