Crafting my way through FND with various techniques, producing items for you to simply love.

Hey, my name is Samantha, I was diagnosed with FND in March 2020. However, my journey began the previous March following a car accident on my journey to work, nothing has been the same since.

Due to a deterioration in my physical ability over a period of months I had no choice but to retire from my job as a Cancer Specialist Nurse. Just a few months before I won 'Nurse of The Year', my career was developing as I was planning. Retiring so young was devastating for me, life completely fell apart.

FND is a condition which means the messages between the brain and nervous system become disconnected, leaving you to manage symptoms such as paralysis, tremors, inability to talk and seizures to name a few. Each days presents a variety of symptoms and intensity. FND takes so much from you, emotionally, physically and cognitively. I felt so lonely, I had lost my identity, my role within the home and I felt a complete burden to my incredibly supportive family.

I reached out to FNDHOPEUK on many occasions and received nothing short of incredible. With this help and my recent intensive rehabilitation programme feel I can start slowly moving forwards. I know life will never be the same, how can it be? However, I now see myself as an adaption of me. I may need aids and continual support, but FND will never define who I truly am.

As part of my ongoing therapy discovered crafting. I never imagined it would lead to where I am now. Crafting is cited to help FND symptoms, but, to me its more than that. I feel by crafting I am making someone smile; therefore, I am still making a difference, just like Cancer Nursing.

I decided to become a non-profit crafter for FNDHOPEUK as a thank you for the incredible support and literature. I feel incredibly passionate about raising awareness and educating others, we need treatment and care pathways. What better way than to craft? Popping literature in the gifts is a great way to reach out to so many. With this in mind will have a profit margin of around 20% from the crafts I sell as I will need to deduct monies for materials. I will however, host raffles and other events along the way to boost my target.

I hope my new online store will inspire others. I firmly believe 'the best is yet to come'.
