BTW, I'm open to anyone wanting to contribute a pic + story that fits the prologue.

The "Fringe" phone was also used by several celebrities. Film and television star Jaime Pressly (Joy from "My Name is Earl") hasn't let her condition get to her. In fact, her nickname for her affliction - "Pinhead" - has gone viral and become the official term.

She was seen at a photoshoot one week after her head shrunk; her steely gaze dared the crew to say one word about her new look.

Several weeks later, she was seen at a local park, going about life as normal and ignoring curious stares from children and parents.

I like the way you think. It gives the material more, I don't know... substance.

Stephanie Fuller had trouble adjusting to her onset of "Cranial Compression Syndrome" (CCS).

"Within the first few weeks, I was having panic attacks. Everything looked so big to me."

Hoping to get her anxiety under control, she began practicing yoga.

"I'd heard so much about it, but I've never really tried it. At that point in my life, I was willing to do anything."

Over a year and half later, Stephanie is not only still practicing, but has used her settlement earnings to open her own studio, hiring local teachers and holding special classes for other victims of CCS.

"I'm actually happier now than when my head was still big. I know I'll probably stay this way for the rest of my life, but I've made peace with it and find it so rewarding to help others do the same You might say one transformation led to another!"
