Happy Mother’s Day to all of you incredible rare disease moms out there. And that’s whether you’re a mom of someone with a rare disease, or you have a rare disease yourself and you’re also a mom… Last Tuesday I released an episode of my podcast called “When Are You Going To Treat My Child?” It’s about the mother of the first child treated for PKU… and her fierce advocacy for her daughter. I intentionally released it a few days before Mother’s Day. Because as far as I’m concerned, Mary Jones became a mother to the entire PKU community, even though she never knew it. And she paved the way for future developments in newborn screening and rare diseases. So, I’m sharing this episode again this Mother’s Day to remind you… Whether you’re fighting for a diagnosis for your child’s rare disease… Or you’re fighting for treatment… Or you’re fighting for access to treatment… Or you’re a mom who has a rare disease, and you’re trying to balance caring for yourself and for your family… You are making a difference and changing history… for someone. This story is about one determined mother who did not remain silent, spoke up for her child, and changed the world. “When Are You Going To Treat My Child?”: https://lnkd.in/gtmC_Ztw #raredisease #metabolicdisorder #newbornscreening #newbornscreeningsaveslives #phenylketonuria #pku #pkuawareness #lowproteindiet
