The Difficult Patients

We're fundraising for every Woman who was never believed — So the next ones are!

Difficult Patient (noun): A woman who knew her pain was real long before anyone believed her. Also known as: a SELF-ADVOCATE

Meet the Milnes.

There's me — Amy. 36 years of being told I was overreacting. Turns out I had endometriosis. Difficult patient? Guilty. Wrong? Not once.

There's Eric. He has believed me since day one. Every surgery, every setback, every doctor who didn't believe me — Eric did. Always. He is here because no husband, no father, no son should ever have to watch the woman they love be dismissed, doubted, denied and left to figure it out alone.

And then there's Spencer and Jack — who grew up with a mom who hid her pain and pretended she was fine. They didn't know how bad it was. Now they do. And they are here — showing up to fight for me and every other woman in their lives who deserves to be believed the first time.

We are The Difficult Patients. And we're here to get louder.

Fund us. Fund this. Fund the change.

Together we RAISE. Together we RISE.

Amy, Eric, Spencer and Jack Milne
