Navigating the turbulence of adolescence is challenging for anyone—but for Kayleigh-Ann, it quickly becomes a battle for survival. When medical symptoms strike, her world as she knows it crumbles. What should be a time of self-discovery and joy turns into a relentless fight against an unyielding system, an undiagnosed illness, and the betrayal of her own body.

In Can’t Stomach It, Kayleigh-Ann takes you on a raw and transformative journey—a fight for answers, for justice, and for herself. Thrust into an unforgiving adult world far too soon, she confronts trauma, loss, family breakdowns, mental health struggles, and abuse of power—all while trying to navigate the everyday chaos of teenage life: friendships, school, love, and the daunting uncertainty of the future.

This is more than just a story. It’s a powerful testament to human resilience, a striking portrait of strength in the face of adversity, and an unfiltered glimpse into the realities of living with a complex condition. Join Kayleigh-Ann’s fight for survival and diagnosis. Witness her courage, vulnerability, and unwavering determination to reclaim her life and health.

Kayleigh-Ann Doran steps into the world of non-fiction with her debut book, Can’t Stomach It—a raw, compelling narrative born from her relentless battle with an undiagnosed, debilitating illness. A passionate advocate for both physical and mental health, she shares her journey with unflinching honesty, illuminating the resilience, vulnerability, and fierce determination that defines her story.

When she is not writing, she documents her life on Instagram; @KaayleiighAnn. where she documents the highs and challenges of living with a disability, tending to her allotment, working as a nurse, her gym escapades and love of walking, especially with her beloved dog, Toby.
