Erika
Hi l'm Erika (@erikagreenberg_), I am endometriosis warrior and a sepsis survivor. In 2017, I had a fallopian tube abscess that burst.
I went into septic shock and was in the hospital for about two months fighting for my life. I was also diagnosed with endometriosis during that same year. I have dealt with chronic pain and chronic illnesses almost my whole life. I have made it my life's mission to help people who struggle with chronic pain/ illness and spread awareness. Do not forget that you are strong and a warrior. -
Abi
Hey! I’m Abi, and I’m “medically interesting.” I have several chronic health conditions that have led to me using mobility aids as part of my coping (not passing out in public is nice), but I’m still discovering the extent of my interesting-ness! If you see me online, feel free to reach out and chat; I’m happy to share more about my journey one-on-one.
Law school is a large part of my life right now, and I’m looking forward to making a difference as a lawyer! My hobbies include art, fashion, pop culture, and music (and let’s be honest, lots of YouTube on rough days). Find me and my (mostly thrifted) outfit photos on Instagram @abi.normal_ -
Jennifer
My name is Jennifer, and I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 12/12/12 at the age of 32 after a year of doctors and treatments trying to figure out my chronic pain.
I had multiple allergic reactions, one resulting in pustular psoriasis altering my life forever and adding a new lifelong diagnosis. I felt alone and secluded, which spurred the idea to create my IG @Gracefully_Jen, My Spoonie Sisters community and podcast @My_Spoonie_Sisters too! Please join my fellow spoonie sisters, but don’t forget your spoon! 🥄 -
Mikayla
Hey! My name is Mikayla, I am a FND warrior! When I was diagnosed, I decided to create my page on instagram (@mikayla_and_fnd) to help spread awareness and have my voice heard to help others feel less alone! I have many undiagnosed disorders, but I try to never let my health take over my life. Most of these oddballs have led me to become a regular mobility aid user. I love music and Criminal Minds. I will be going to college to study Psychology.

Alicia
Hi friends! My name is Alicia, and I was diagnosed with SLE (Lupus) 2 years ago, but have been battling symptoms for approximately 6 years. I recently had to say goodbye to my career in the banking industry as the disease progressed. Although it has been hard coming to terms with my illness, I was able to open my own online clothing boutique, Solmeres Boutique, and work at my own pace while managing my health. I’m grateful for all of the opportunities life has given me, even through the struggles of a chronic illness. Find me on Instagram @alicia___xoxo and @solmeresboutique
Sending lots of love to my fellow spoonies! -

Geri
Hi everyone! My name is Geri and I'm a lupus warrior from NYC. I was suffering for months not knowing what was going on with my body. I was officially diagnosed with (SLE) lupus in July 2017. Lupus has also attacked my kidneys so I also have lupus nephritis. I am a patient advocate for lupus.net where I write articles and moderate. I also recently became an ambassador for the Lupus Foundation of America. It's been over 5 years and each day I'm pushing through and hoping for the best. You can find me on Instagram @everydaylivinglupus where I share facts about lupus, chronic illness and share glimpses of my life.
Fun fact: I love all things disney and watching Broadway shows.
