Welcome to A Yuniquie Journey! Each product in the AYJ Collection were curated, selected, and crafted with care and a touch of my personal humor. As a survivor of Guillain-Barre Syndrome, I am committed to raising awareness about this neurological condition in every way possible.
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) (pronounced Ghee-yan Bah-ray) is a rare neurological disorder in which a person’s immune system mistakenly attacks part of their peripheral nervous system—the network of nerves that carries signals from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body.
GBS begins suddenly and can increase in intensity over a period of hours, days, or weeks until certain muscles cannot be used at all. For more information please visit the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke by clicking the button below.
In April '22, I was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome, a rare condition that brought me to my knees, robbing me of my mobility, senses, and voice. I am still fighting to regain my mobility after 2 years through outpatient physical therapy and at-home activities.
It has been a challenging and frightening time, to say the least. Any support offered during this time in my life is more than appreciated and recognized.
Thank you for even visiting my website because it means more to me than you know! If you would like to support AYJ & GBS Awareness please see the information below:
