Show Notes

Garrett was a high school athlete when COVID-19 turned his life upside down. By day 4 of his illness, he knew that things were not going to be the same. He has seen numerous doctors in the past year trying to reclaim the life of a carefree teen, but instead suffers daily with POTS symptoms. Thankfully, he has a wonderful support system to help him deal with this new reality.
