Freebie Alert! Brat Pack Blog Train! Awareness Theme

This month's blog train is the Awareness theme. I was super psyched about this one, especially since I hadn't done a train in awhile. I wanted to make this one a dedication to my friend Georgi. Georgi lives with RSD- Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome. It's a debilitating disease, one that takes over your life. My heart often aches for Georgi and the pain she endures and lives with. She's an amazing mother and wife, incredible friend. I love her so much and wish there was a way to take away some of the pain she lives with. To know Georgi is to honestly love her. She has this wicked sense of humor and never a dull moment! She has such posititivy in her, it's just wonderful. Over the years I've talked with Georgi about RSD, Made her stuff, and supported her. I've learned more about RSD and the severity of it. There isn't a lot of light shed on this disease. I hope to rectify it. Please go to the RSD website and educate yourself! Because this kit was for Georgi, I wanted to make it something totally about her. She's a goth girl like no other! She loves everything goth and dark. The awareness ribbon color is an orange color, so I jumped at the chance to use these killer color combo's! Georgi, this one is for you...I love you!!!!!

  4. Hi, All I can say is OMG, I have this condition and it is so rare to see anything about it. I have had RSD or CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) as it is now called in the UK. I have had it diagnosed now for 4 years but actually had it since 2002 but it wasn't diagnosed as it is so difficult to diagnose, you go everywhere and see everyone in different departments in the hospitals even now they know very little, I was told that it could not travel to other parts of the body , how wrong they were. It started in one leg now it is in both legs, both feet, and one lower arm and hand. I live on morphine and other painkillers and I am waiting for a SCS trial (Spinal Cord Stimulator) basically a TENS machine, which is attached to the spinal cord and a battery pack is inserted inside the body and is controlled by a switch on the outside. So that it gives you the amount of pain relief you need, but this is just a top up to the other medicines that are taken. But thank you so much for making a kit to highlight this condition, it has really made my day to see how you are trying to bring awareness not only to this condition but to many others. Thank you.
    Hugs
