🎧 NEW EPISODE ALERT 🎙️ In today's episode, we are honored to have Jaime Ignacio Puerta Gonzalez, President of V.O.I.D. "Victims of Illicit Drugs" and Co-Chair of "Facing Fentanyl Now" joining to shed some light on the far-reaching impact of #fentanyl and the legislative and societal challenges that have hindered efforts to combat this deadly substance. Jaime, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, shares his personal journey and the heart-wrenching loss of his son, Daniel, to fentanyl poisoning on April 6, 2020. As he delves into his advocacy work and the mission of V.O.I.D., we gain valuable insights into the deceitful tactics of #drugcartels, the need for legislative reform, and the urgent call for awareness and collaboration on a global scale. Join us as we discuss: *Social media and its role in fentanyl distribution *How Proposition 47 and 57 are impacting #lawenforcement and #publicsafety in California *The impact of #harmreduction groups addressing the fentanyl crisis *The role that schools and educational institutions can play in raising awareness about fentanyl and preventing its distribution among young people 👉 Listen to the full episode with Michael W.

Award-winning Rare Disease Advocate / Rare Disease PAG Leader / Patient Engagement and Patient-Centered Research Science / Co-creation & Citizen Science
I wanted to take a moment during Glycogen Storage Disease Awareness Week to share a highly personal post. In the process searching for answers to our idiopathic (unexplained) ketotic hypoglycemia within our family, it was discovered that we carry multiple GSD genes - a common finding among families impacted by idiopthic pathological ketotic hypoglycemia in Ketotic Hypoglycemia International. This phenomenon is called synergistic heterozygosity. Want to read more about synergistic heterozygosity in inborn error of metabolism? Check this paper out: https://lnkd.in/edDUf8VF The question of whether we have GSD or not remains unanswered, but I have faith that experts like Terry Derks and David Weinstein, M.D., M.M.Sc. will unravel the complexities of symptomatic carriers one day. In the meantime, during this Awareness Week and throughout the year, all of us in the idiopathic ketotic hypoglycemia community stand together in solidarity with the Glycogen Storage Disease communities - together we are stronger. Please take a moment to watch the inspiring video featuring a close friend and fellow advocate family of ours; Jamas LaFreniere and Margot LaFreniere, parents to little Sophie and the founders of Sophies Hope Foundation (CureGSD1b). https://lnkd.in/eT4ASJZT
