15 year old with Ehlers Danlos, “I feel beautiful, even with my feeding tube”
Emily Jones is 22, and is currently living with a feeding tube.
Growing up, she suffered from chronic joint pain, and at age 15 was diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) type 3, a connective tissue disease affecting her joints, muscles, skin and organs.
Doctors gave Emily a feeding tube because she couldn’t keep food or liquids down. It has been a huge challenge, but it hasn’t stopped Emily pursuing her passion for beauty blogging and make-up tutorials.
