Happy Independence Day Week! Being Rare in America

There are 30 million people in America with a rare disease.

That is about 1 in 10, or 10%, of the population. Keep on fighting the good fight, every post or share is a step toward the rare community getting noticed, getting better treatment and maybe even getting a cure! Happy Independence Day Week!
