Hi! My name is Michelle. I have Chiari Malformation and I had decompression surgery. If you have never heard of Chiari, that is understandable as most people have not. It happens in about 1 out of 1000 births but it is not always symptomatic. So, when I tell someone about it I tend to have an interesting conversation. I decided to start making little comics about these conversations and I hope that it will help people to understand what they sound like from my point of view. More than that though, I hope to give you a glimpse into the life of someone who has a hidden illness and is just trying to figure out life. Stick figure Michelle and Chiari brain will help me tell my tales.
