My name is Ali Cornish, I’m 42 years old, and I live with an autoimmune disease called Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS).

AS is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily affects the spine and joints, causing pain, stiffness, and long-term mobility challenges. It’s one of more than 100 autoimmune diseases, affecting over 3.2 million people worldwide.

Autoimmune diseases are on the rise—23.5 million Americans live with one, and the numbers keep growing. While there’s no cure, these conditions are hopeless. With education, lifestyle changes, and the right support, we can manage symptoms and live fulfilling lives.

I’m here to share my journey, raise awareness, and connect with others who are navigating life with autoimmunity.

If you or someone you love is affected, know this: you are not alone, and you have more power than you think. 💚
