Doctor's visit ticket for children with rare genetic diseases

Children with rare genetic diseases are inextricably linked to federal medical centers, where the greatest experience in diagnosing and treating these conditions is concentrated. This spring, four of our rare children are flying to seek help that can't be found closer to home. One trip is to correct the hormonal balance associated with the ultra-rare mutation the child has had since birth. The second trip is to receive the first treatment plan for Rett syndrome and to select therapy for epilepsy. The third trip is to slow the progression of a rare neurological condition that only worsens with age. The fourth trip is to prepare for surgery that will help the child breathe at night and attend school. Each of these trips is more than just a doctor's visit. It's a step toward a better life that a family can't take alone. Help our rare children reach help by supporting the airfare fundraiser for the children and their mothers. Be there!
