I am always advocating for CRPS and my son, Gage. I will always advocate for CRPS and my son, Gage.

It’s true, CRPS entered my family’s life via our youngest Klenotic, Gage. My little boy was only 11 when he began experiencing a pain so unbearable that he was called a liar by physicians, classmates, teachers, and strangers. No one in medicine or otherwise, could believe that a little boy could have a pain so severe that it was real. It was a hellish journey.

I’m honored to have become a writer that sheds light on a community who battles to be well and to be believed. I believe them and I will advocate to the best of my ability for all of them because I once had a little boy who taught me about true strength as he navigated CRPS.
