Connective tissue is impacted by the genetic illnesses known as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS). The complex mixture of proteins and other chemicals that makes up connective tissue gives the body support and structure. The epidermis, blood vessels, ligaments, and tendons all contain it. Collagen, a crucial component of connective tissue, is a protein that is either insufficient or functions improperly in EDS.

EDS comes in a variety of forms, each with a unique set of symptoms and severity levels. The most prevalent variety of EDS is called classical EDS, and it is characterized by hypermobile (overly flexible) joints, easily bruised and scarred skin, and delicate tissues and skin. Various kinds of EDS can manifest as aberrant scarring, fragile blood vessels, abnormalities of the spine, and other abnormalities of the bones, among other symptoms.

Because the symptoms of EDS might resemble those of other illnesses, diagnosing the disorder can be challenging. A family history of the condition and the presence of specific physical traits are typically used to diagnose it. In order to completely understand the entire tale and how it ultimately came to pass, this book is your one-stop resource for all the information you could possibly need on the life, legacy, and history of this legendary former player.
