TAYLOR DHAMO WORDS BY SARA MAGINN PACELLA PHOTOS BY ELZA PHOTOGRAPHIE
Taylor first felt that something was wrong at 17 years old, when a pain in her hip (presumed to be a sports injury) progressed into her back. It took two years of persistence, pain, frustration, and being told that it was all in her head before she was given a diagnosis.

Now in her early 30s, Taylor is a mom, health advocate, and inspiration for perseverance. The following interview excerpts have been edited for clarity and brevity.
