Erin and @Gauge_thewonder_dog

Hey there, I'm Erin!

I'm a typical 15 year old sophomore living in a New Jersey. I have Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 1. Yes, I realize that is SUPPOSED to be the most mild form but I ended up with a severe case. I've broke my bones 100.25 times (most recent fracture only went 25% through the bone, just to clear that up. Thank you titanium rods!) My mobility is not too great so I use a manual wheelchair and a service dog to get around independently. 

I attend public school like anyone else and love Drama Club, High School Wrestling, and Band. I play the flute, the saxophone, and I sing a little bit. 

If anyone wants to get into contact with me rather quickly? I'd advise you DM me on Instagram: @gauge_thewonder_dog
Yes, my service dog has his own social media. He also officially has 3 times the followers I do
