The idea of Rare Disease Day was simple and straightforward—every four years there is a rare day, February 29, so what better day to choose to honor those with rare conditions. In non-leap years we celebrate on February 28 or March 1. In a recent blog post, Frank Sasinowski writes about how Rare Disease Day has evolved and what we can expect going forward to maybe even have Rare Disease Month.

Today is the first day in my initiative to raise awareness for Rare Disease Day, coming up on the 29th February. I will post something about one rare disease every day during February. Mostly, these will be personal stories from people living with a rare disease. The stories that are coming, will truly humble you. Amazing people with resilience beyond my comprehension! But...today is a bit different. Today is von Willebrand awareness day, so that seemed like the obvious place to start this initiative. There is a great initiative being run by the European Haemophilia Consortium. I have written an introduction to VWD, and the reasons for its under diagnosis. Maybe some of the symptoms will resonate with someone, as around 1% of the population have this condition, and many will not have been yet diagnosed. There are some useful links at the bottom of the article, where you can find more information. #rarediseaseawareness #bleedingdisorders
