My new chair is here and I’m pretty sure this is the most comfortable I’ve been since birth. 😂 Bubba approves, too! I was able to make dinner, load the dishwasher, and restock the fridge/freezer independently! The zero gravity tilt has helped a lot with the pain in my back + pelvic girdle. Gratitude doesn’t feel like a big enough words for how I feel. This is my 4th chair within the last two years and I actually feel like this one is mine. Like it’s a true extension of my body; we are one. I love her and am so grateful to have her. ❤️ I have not found a name yet so I’m open to any suggestions you may have, or tips/accessory suggestions too!

Hold up,I just found out that there is a condition where a human can be born with only one eye,and it's a birth disorder called cyclopia. Like the cyclopes in mythology.

Now,what if the mist fails and the mortals see some bits of cyclopes,but they are like "Omg,poor soul,they have cyclopia. I hope life will be kind to them." And the poor cyclop is just there like "??? Tf you talking about?? I'm good?"

Happy NF awareness month to all my fellow baddies with Neurofibromatosis.

For those not aware NF is a group of genetic conditions including Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), Neurofibromatosis-2 related-schwannomatosis (NF2) and schwannomatosis (SWN). NF1 is one of the most common rare genetic conditions. NF1 which I have effects 1 in 2500 people, NF2 1 in 25000 people and SWN is 1 in 70,000.

NF affects everyone differently and to different levels.
