About

Rarelynormal.com is run by a proud wife, loving mother of 3, who also happens to be a nurse. Her name is Valeri. She has been a nurse for about 15 years, most of that time she has been in Emergency Medicine. She has used her experience and medical knowledge to care and advocate for her unique family of 5. On any given day, Val and her family battle multiple food allergies, rare, and not so rare diseases. For more than a decade Val has been educated by research, specialists, and hands on experience with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EOE), Cyclical Vomiting Syndrome (CVS), Anaphylaxis (ANA), and Asthma.

Rarelynormal.com was started to help educate on these rare diseases, share life lessons, delicious easy to prepare recipes, and support families with similar struggles. However, the most important thing Valeri hopes to accomplish with this blog is to reach individuals living this rarely normal life to let you know, you are not alone.

So grab a cup of hot chocolate (Valeri doesn’t like coffee), pull up a cozy spot on your couch, and let’s get started!!!
