Hi there! I am ecstatic you are here, uniting with our community at Myasthenia Gravis News. My name is Jodi Enders (she/her), and I am one of the forum moderators for Myasthenia Gravis News. I am an artist and anthropologist residing in Florida, where I enjoy fossil hunting and paddling with manatees in the springs. I trust that my anthropological specialties in cultural sensitivity, providing resources to marginalized individuals, and engaging digital communities will enhance the perspectives and struggles of those living with MG. Since being diagnosed with MG in August 2020 when I was 21 years old, I have gained new views, compassion, and mindfulness that I enjoy sharing with a global audience. I am pleased to have the opportunity to supervise this forum because I am eager at the chance to advocate for the rare disease community. I hope to give back to the MG community that helped me stay encouraged during my first few months with MG and navigating my last semester at USF.
