A victim of invisible flaws since adolescence, Varoise Laura Scisorn indulges herself in beauty pageants.

Modeling and medicine: these were Laura Sizorn’s childhood dreams. But, if this charming Breton by birth (37 years old Thursday) collects scarves at Miss competitions ⁽¹⁾his attitude towards health is not really what we were hoping for.

Adopted Seinoise, however, received a bachelor’s degree in social sciences and a nursing diploma… but in reality she is the one who needs care.

“I have been in good health since I was a teenager.– she testifies. I suffer from chronic pain, fatigue, brittle limbs: I get sprains, dislocations, without doing anything…”

“I feel like a liar…”

Suffering in silence because its flaws are invisible: “There was a lot of confusion with diagnoses. I was told it was “in the head.” I felt like I was being looked at as a liar…”

But in 2016, when she arrived in Vars after passing through Paris, Laura found herself in a coma and actually passed not one, but three sentences: “I fell into a coma due to adrenal insufficiency: I stopped producing enough cortisol, a hormone necessary for life. I was also diagnosed with fibromyalgia, which was responsible for my pain, as well as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.” the cause of the excessive weakness of my limbs”.

A “relief” for Seynoise, thus recognized as disabled: “Finally they believed me!” Unfortunately, not forever because of his pain, despite the real “therapeutic arsenal” between equipment and drugs: “There may be weeks when everything goes well, and there may be weeks when things go completely wrong…”

So, when things are going well, Laura Sezen (her nickname) returns to the stage, just like in 2017, where she became Miss Sanary-Bandol for her. “first elections in the South”.

But this doesn’t happen often, and she “decides to stop in 2018”.

Until real improvement in 2020 “thanks to [sa] pregnancy”: “Being pregnant really helped me feel better and allowed me to take less medication.”

However, the respite was short-lived for Lanha’s mother, who became a victim of the return of all her ailments and depression after childbirth.

“My daughter was the driving force for me then, I wanted her to see me differently than with my health problems.” Thus, the Breton woman regains all her will… and the stage with the Madame France 2024 competition, intended for 25-39 years old and 39-60 years old, organized last month in Paris.

In a (new) beginning, “Problem because I gained 10kg due to corticosteroids”.

Disability is “not a barrier”

Upon arrival advantage: “I felt really good, I was glad to be in the parade again, to see myself looking elegant again.”

And the jury appreciated this, awarding her second runner-up!

“This contributes to my resumption of normal social life. Because we shouldn’t withdraw into ourselves when we’re sick, that’s the worst thing.”– says Laura, determined to continue “live [ses] dreams”: “Disability is not a barrier: you just have to find a way to achieve them differently.”

Professionally, receptionist Seinoise will also have to do things differently, since she “cannot be a caregiver or work in the medical field”: “I am looking for training that will allow me to balance work, life as a single mother and my disability.” Not forgetting about beauty contests.
