Invisible Illness and Incommunicable Diseases: Emily Reach White at TEDxGreenville

Emily watched in silence and shame as her dad struggled with Chronic Lyme Disease for over ten years. After his death in 2007, she began to question: What makes some diseases more culturally visible, and more culturally acceptable, than others? In her talk, she explains that not all diseases are created equal and how narrative medicine can help right these inequalities.

She is the co-writer and co-director of GET BETTER (2012), which is loosely based on writing from her blog (www.GetBetterTheMovie.com / www.emilyreachwhite.com) and her dad's fight with late-stage Lyme disease.

At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
