Since dealing with her own health crisis in 2004, Dianne has understood
all too well how difficult it can be to cope with serious health changes,
especially when they permanently alter your life. It can be even more
daunting when these new challenges are hidden from the outside world.

While it can be easier for some people to understand the need for
accommodations for a person in a wheelchair or someone who uses
visible medical assistance devices, it can add stress to a physically
challenged person when your unique challenges are hidden. 

Dianne has learned a great deal in the 19 years she has been dealing with her neurological conditions. It was her desire to help those who come after her with their own unique challenges to have to struggle less than she had to do.  To reach those individuals who are facing their own challenges and those who live and work with those people, Dianne created the Mutant Chronicles on TikTok.

The Mutant Chronicles are a series of videos where Dianne talks about what it is like to live with neurological challenges and ways she has found to cope with different obstacles. She also includes helpful information for those who want to help people with special challenges without overstepping boundaries or taking more independence for the challenged individuals in their lives. 

Dianne hopes to increase her advocacy for other challenged individuals. She believes that if sharing her story can make even one other person feel more understood and less alone in their daily challenges, it is worth all of the effort.
