I forgot to make the scarf plaid & that is a blanket it is dragging.

Reynaud’s Disease

A drained polar bear. It wears a light pink and blue fuzzy striped bucket hat that exposes the ears, a blue, pink, and light blue plaid scarf and light blue snow boots. On one paw is a pink mitten, the other is exposed with purple-blue fingertips – the same color as the nose and the tips of the ears. A snowflake is on its belly. The bear is cold, and the drained expression conveys one of both being in pain and being numb at the same time.

“Raynaud's (ray-NOSE) disease causes some areas of the body — such as fingers and toes — to feel numb and cold in response to cold temperatures or stress. In Raynaud's disease, smaller arteries that supply blood to the skin narrow. This limits blood flow to affected areas, which is called vasospasm.” – Mayoclinic

For the did rabbit remodel I would like it if the plural symbol was removed and placed with the did ribbon I also thought it would be cute to make it more colorful scince the ribbon is very colorful I really felt like the rabbit leaned way more towards the plural community then the did community it really killed anything I liked about the rabbit I would representation that represents did and not the plural community I also like the idea of the rabbit having a shaker maybe on its body or just holding one to represent how did can often be disorienting and confusing maybe little bunnies for alters or the clock symbol on the dissociation rabbit.

One for GERD/Acid Reflux

I saw that there were pages for eczema and atopic dermatitis prototypes, and as someone with moderate-severe atopic dermatitis, I'm so excited to see these!
I did want to add, however, that eczema is more of a broadly overlapping term for all kinds of skin conditions involving rash—atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, etc, all fall under the category of "eczema." Generally, when eczema is referred to as a singular condition, it's referring to a mild case of rash, usually caused by tags on clothing or high friction.
the plushie design under "eczema" actually looks more accurate to atopic dermatitis, in that regard, but representation for all skin conditions is severely limited, and seeing the specificity of eczema and atopic dermatitis being separate is very meaningful. atopic dermatitis isn't "just" eczema or "just" a rash.
here are some suggestions for the atopic dermatitis rabbit specifically:
high friction point rashes (backs of knees, insides of elbows, neck and shoulders, ears, etc)
skin discoloration from rashes
darkening under the eyes
maybe some rash-y spots could be a yellowish color, to represent oozing/weeping wounds and the severe risk of staph/mrsa
many people with AD take pills or use biologic injections to help manage the rash, not just lotions.
dermatitis on the hands and feet is really common, too, and makes movement a huge struggle when it flares on the joints
maybe cracks along the ears to represent cracked skin?
wet wraps are wraps where steroid cream is applied to a major flare up, then bandages are applied on top. but raw skin is really common, too, so bandages and wraps are equally as common.
i'm not sure how this would be represented, aside from maybe scars, but something I and many other patients of moderate-severe AD go through is all of the stupid suggestions. "just try this lotion!" "just don't get stressed!" "have you used essential oils?" "have you soaked in a bath with bleach?" "what about rubbing head and shoulders shampoo on it?" "i've heard goat milk is really helpful for skin!" etc etc. it goes on and on and on and never ends. it can be very stressful to hear all of these suggestions, when you've already tried everything your doctor may have given you that didn't work either.
as well, many people with AD (like myself) have insomnia from itching, asthma, food allergies, the like. the pain experienced with AD is tremendous, and there's very little support or representation. people often forget that the skin is the largest organ, and if the largest organ (that literally covers your body from head to toe) is flaring up, breaking, weeping, itching, bleeding, swelling… you'll feel it everywhere, and will feel exhausted from the constant battle your immune system is forcing your skin to go through.
the only other thing i'd add is that many people with AD often cover up their rashes out of shame or embarrassment, and so wear long sleeved hoodies or tshirts, and long legged pants. it can be shameful and belittling to cover it up, but if you don't, people ask all sorts of questions about it. i've had mothers pull their children away from me out of fear or contagion, or other adults refuse to shake my hand or wipe their hands clean after touching me. many people believe it's contagious, and thus would have nothing to do with me. it's very painful. i would love to see a rabbit that doesn't feel the need to cover their rashes up, and isn't afraid of the backlash of those so afraid of "catching" what makes me myself. to have a rabbit unafraid to show its skin and what makes it itself would be so unbelievably meaningful.
thank you for brightening my day with even the mere suggestion of a prototype. this kind of representation means the world.
