I just have to watch my joints that i keep them slightly bent. I obviously don't have it to an extreme degree, but my mother does, as do her sisters and my sister. it will be okay :) we have that in our family, too. the great thing is that healthy diet and exercise (like yoga and pilates) goes a LONG way to help. i have found yoga to be VERY helpful to me.

I am sad to hear your family is affected but glad that you have a diagnosis for your kids at such a young age! There is so much you can do for them. The best site for EDS resources is www.ednf.org. Also, check out my blog for a list of helpful web sites and EDS-related blogs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or thoughts.

Mainly it's manifested in thumb and hand issues (especially with playing dulcimer and knitting) and in my hips and knees.
