I started Staying Connected as a way to connect with other people diagnosed with or impacted by Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, or VEDS. I myself was diagnosed with VEDS in 2017, and meeting others with VEDS has changed how I handle my own diagnosis. In this podcast I connect with other people whose lives have been impacted by VEDS and related vascular and aortic connective tissue conditions, like Marfan and Loeys-Dietz, getting a chance to hear and share their stories!

Today we’re going to hear from Melanie Case, who was diagnosed with Marfan syndrome in 2002, a couple years after she had a thoracic aortic dissection following the delivery of her second child. This aortic dissection went undiagnosed for about two years, and after it was discovered, it led to her diagnosis with Marfan syndrome.
