Will McKay
Hi My name is Will.
I’ve had AS for the past 7 years. Living in Kitchener, Ontario with my 11 yr old son, I am now 31, turning 32 in December. The AS effects my spine right from my skull down and into my hips and across my shoulders and arms. My feet are swollen up almost twice the size and throb constantly. I’ve been off work for the past 1.5 yrs while my doctor tries humira..again. :s . I can’t sit upright for more than 1/2 hour before I have to lay down, exhaustion is horrible. I’ve had to come to terms with not being able to mountain bike anymore or spending the day at canada’s wonderland or even taking a hike in the woods with my son without pain. I now take each day as it comes, planning for events or anything in the future is a crap shoot as we all know LOL. Thanks for reading, cheers to one day finding us a cure.
Dear Will,
Thank you so much for sharing your story with us.
Sincerely Cookie
