    As of December 2022, Mandy had lost about 20kg overall. She's experiencing a little bit of trouble with her medication but she's working with her team to continue treating her condition. She has an update on her Facebook page for those interested.

      Mandy seems likes such a kind sweet person. I was afraid to look for an update to this video because I didn't want to read bad news so thank you for the update. I'm happy Mandy is doing better. I hope she continues to improve and can gain more independence. I also hope the research into her case will help others with similar issues. Mandy is so easy to like and you can't help but wish for the very best for her.

      I don't want to watch the whole video, it's not pleasant seeing this poor woman's struggle. Why can't they amputate higher? What is in her leg? Is it water weight? Can it be drained? This poor woman. I see some people are praying for her. That actually makes me a little mad. Like there's an omniscient god up there making people with swollen horrific legs for his amusement and they're... begging him for mercy? Asking for an explanation? I don't get it.

    Mandy absolutely amazes me. So many people in my country (me included) complain about the most minor inconveniences and really allow the smallest things to bring us down. I have no doubt that she has her moments too but her courage, determination and strength is what really separates her from us, not necessarily her legs! Mandy you are beyond unique because of what is on the inside not outside. I’m cheering for you girl and sending love and respect from Idaho, USA!

    That makes me really happy for her. She's always been so bright and positive. She deserves to have an amazing life and I hope she gets to do everything she's ever wanted to do now that her legs aren't holding her back like this anymore.

    I’ve seen other videos about Mandy. She is such a amazing lady. My heart breaks for her. Incredible that the doctor found her mutation ! Can we even imagine what she goes through on a daily basis? Dragging around couple of hundred pounds.. she is fighter! I hope we get another update on how she’s doing?

    Having watched Mandy's documentaries over the years it is so brilliant to see her finally getting some hope after everything that she has been through. She might be fragile looking on the top half, but she has the willpower and grit of sheer steel. This lass deserves to get something good to come along and help her through, but she will still need that extra oomph just to be able to get back to her normal way of life, but i so hope that she is going to get well again. I hope that the side effects that she is having are minor so that she can go onwards and upwards. Well done Mandy flower, i hope that you are so proud of YOURSELF, because we are. Norah, Scotland

    Mandy came to my mind today, I've been following her story for years and I'm so glad to see her progress and they are helping her and through her, to help a child with a similar condition. According to what I see of Mandy's personality, I think she would be just as, if not even more, happy that she can help another as compared to getting help herself.

    I wished we had a Dr. Semple who can help figure out the genetic disorder that plagues so many. Hypermobility Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. They've isolated the genes that cause Vascular Ehlers Danlos and Classical EDS, but we are still searching for elusive HEDS.
