Living with an invisible disability - VACTERL association with Anja

HERE WE ARE AGAIN bringing some FLAVOUR to your FRIDAY! Today we are joined with Anja. Anja was born with VACTERL association, a non-random association of birth defects that affect multiple anatomical structures. Anja is certainly very overqualified for this condition as she identifies with 5 of the 6 of the abnormalities, which is very rare. However, Anja’s abnormalities are mostly hidden, resulting in her having an “invisible” disability. Not only is Anja an advocate for other people with disabilities but she is a powerhouse, a model, an author, a speaker AND a director and founder of Champion Health Agency, an agency that represents individuals that have lived experience with disabilities and chronic illness.

This story is a bloody good one.
