Cushing's syndrome is where your body makes too much stress hormone (cortisol)

It is a progressive illness that leads to weight gain, extreme tiredness, and high blood pressure which can be quite dangerous over prolonged periods. A telltale sign that appears with Cushing's are the bright purple tiger stripes (stretch marks) on the abdomen. 

Many people struggle to lose weight, and end up with further stress as they are told to lose weight for health (or treated as if the weight is the cause), but cannot due to the illness itself. Stress with Cushing's can further exacerbate the illness and even lead to a person's death. Kindness first!

IMPORTANT NOTE Regarding the design of our Plushie Dreadfuls. We take these topics seriously. That's why our design team only creates plushies related to issues with which they have direct experience. In cases where our team does not have direct experience, we assemble an external team of experts to help guide our creative process. In addition, we use Crowd Design to engage a wide range of voices via platforms like Instagram and Facebook. We gather and respond to feedback from our audience - many of whom have direct experience with the issues we're exploring. And while we strive to represent as many aspects of a particular issue as possible while avoiding stereotypical representations, we hope you understand that plush toys as an artistic medium do limit the full expression of a particular issue to those things that can be crafted in fabric and stitching.

      Benjamin ★★★★★

      The soft, chubby body of the bunny is spot-on for representing the weight gain from Cushing's, and the droopy eyes capture the exhaustion perfectly. It arrived with a little info card about the condition, which made it feel thoughtful and educational.

      Olivia Z. ★★★★★

      The bunny captures the exhaustion and weight gain of Cushing's so perfectly that it made me tear up a little when I first held it. It's a small comfort, but having something soft to hug on my worst fatigue days genuinely helps.

      Penelope D. ★★★★☆

      The soft fur is really comforting, and the little bunny's droopy ears perfectly capture how I feel on my bad days. It's a small but meaningful reminder I'm not alone dealing with this. The only tiny thing is the stuffing is a bit firmer than I'd like for cuddling to sleep.
