The Rare Life

36: Rare Disease Day 2021, The Parent-Perspective


Listen Later

In this special collaborative Rare Disease Day episode, twelve parents come together to share a little about their children with rare conditions. This is a tribute to all children with rare diseases everywhere, and their parents who love them more than life.

These twelve moms tell us a bit about their child’s diagnosis, what it was like to find out about it, and what they want the world to know about their child.

And its gold.

In their 2-4 minute segments, they capture a variety of perspectives and unique situations, but they all have one thing in common; they love their children profoundly.
