Ashleigh’s Personal Journey
Ashleigh Harley’s story is one of resilience. After enduring a significant 10-year delay in her diagnosis of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), she faced life-threatening complications, including severe re-feeding syndrome and gastroparesis. Despite being given a mere six months to live and a 15% survival rate upon discharge from the hospital, Ashleigh defied the odds.
During her hospital stay, she penned songs as a farewell to her family and, in a moment of celebration for her life, she reimagined the classic summer hit ‘Itsy Bitsy Bikini’.
