Did you know that today is world rare disease day?!!!!! On this rare day I hope we can think of all the families who are affected by rare conditions.Did you know?
-350 million people have rare diseases. That is more than all cancers and aids combined!
- 7,000 people are identified with rare diseases that have no cure.
- less than 5% of rare diseases have any therapies or treatments.
I want to send my love to all the families affected by rare diseases. I can honestly say that while I have never met you, I love you with every ounce of my being. You are the keeper of angels.
The global genes project is where I got the stats above and where this little slogan is from. I like it. Hope is always something to strive for.
