The Convergent Warrior” Art by Deana Caroon
This piece goes out to my fellow IIH and Spontaneous CSF Leak Warriors!
Like us, the porcupine has evolved as I feel we have to. I have had over 20 Lumbar punctures(I have honestly lost count there have been so many) going through diagnosis for IIH and to relieve pressure from my brain, or to repair CSF leaks on my spine, so at times, I guess you could say I feel like a Porcupine with quills in my spine at times. The memories of all of the needles that have penetrated an area that should not be touched…unforgettable. Those of us that have been through these procedures know that they will help us, but I fear them as well, as I also have Ehlers-Dalos syndrome, and if done incorrectly they can cause yet another leak. It is a catch-22, it must be done, but scary as hell. I believe that’s why they call us warriors or use the term invisible illness. Looking at us, how could you tell? We smile and we hide under these smiles, and we go about life, I think for me anyways, it is because I want my life back so badly. I know it will never be the same though. This brings me to the amazing porcupine. Did you know that this amazing creature has evolved its spine independently? Could you imagine if we could do the same, and our spines, and brain pressure just began to regulate themselves? Realistically though; here is to dreaming.. and our amazing surgeons, and doctors finding that magical cure for us! Sending love and light Warriors- Xoxo- Deanna
