Ep. 33: Kristina & Joanne~2 Chiari Warriors From Across The World

In this special, supersized episode, we bring you two incredible stories of resilience from women living with Chiari Malformation, each with their unique journey. First, Kristina shares her experience of losing the ability to walk as a teenager, being confined to a wheelchair, and how, after years of searching, she found the right doctor who helped her regain the feeling in her legs. Today, she's a wife and mother, embracing life fully. In the second half, we speak with Joanne from North Wales, UK, who endured a decade of debilitating headaches, choking episodes, and exhaustion. After two surgeries, she found relief and turned her journey into a powerful book, detailing her surgeries through personal diary entries shared with her husband. These two stories highlight the diverse experiences of living with Chiari and the strength it takes to overcome the challenges.
