Tips for Online Education from an Amputee with ADHD and Dyslexia

Here are some tips and tricks I have learned as an online college student with chronic pain, amputation, ADHD, and dyslexia!

September is Chronic Pain Awareness Month and November is CRPS Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Awareness Month. Both of these things are close to my heart as an amputee because of CRPS and because I still experience daily phantom pain. Today, I ask for your help in bringing a dream to help the chronic pain community have access to better care.

Those are great tips. I hadn't heard of the read aloud program. That's super cool! Congrats on your last semester!

Hello my fellow amputee & pain warrior. My phantom pain has been off the chain. I will be 4 years post amputation and never really had phantom pain much until this past month or so. Of course, as you know, crps is constant
