Thnx so much for this video! I myself have a reason to live on, my teenager daughter and my husband. They have loved and supported me since I was diagnosed about 5 yrs about. They are both my heart and soul!

People dont understand how dehibilitating AS can be, especialy for someone that likes a lot of sport, surfing etc. It can serverely limit your ability to excel. I push myself so hard to try to compensate and its very stressful.

I have AS too and it is so hard to deal with. No one realise show difficult it can be. Some days when I am feeling better I can be more mobile. But it is chronically a difficulty for me. I am in chronic pain. I just wihs people would be more understanding.
