“Loosely Speaking: An Anthology of Life with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome,” (EDS) is a collection of art, poetry, prose, and other such works, by people with EDS and their caregivers.  The goal is to share realistic, authentic experiences, to understand the hobble through life, and to give hope.  The idea is to bring the humanity into the medical lives of those with EDS.
