Sarah Ryan, a 41-year-old single mother pursuing a doctorate in educational leadership for people with disabilities, faces significant challenges due to the sudden onset of debilitating symptoms. These symptoms led to a diagnosis of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Posturalostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) among many others. She has fought through eight years of medical appointments and diagnostic testing, and is now focused on finding treatment options to regain her mobility and independence.
Prior to her illness, Sarah enjoyed a diverse career as an EMT, deputy sheriff, teacher, black belt in Tae Kwon Do, life coach, and more. Now reliant on a powered wheelchair for mobility, as well as other mobility aids, she faces new challenges with daily living. Due to autonomic dysfunction, she cannot regulate her body temperature and relies on heated clothing in the winter and ice vests in the summer.
Sarah is raising funds through Help Hope Live to cover medical expenses not covered by insurance, starting with a stable powered wheelchair and eventually a wheelchair-accessible vehicle to enhance her independence and community engagement. Her ultimate goal is to complete her doctorate and serve those with unmet needs in her community.

?Dear Friends,I began working on this fundraising campaign in small 20 minute chunks at the start of each day. As such, I haven't made it very far into actionable steps yet. My main focus each day is balancing my dissertation research and school work with raising my son and navigating my health as best as I can. As I defend my proposal this month, I hope to dedicate more time to fundraising efforts and learning about fundraising. If anyone is able to join in and support my efforts please let me know! Fearlessly Yours,Sarah Ryan
