Imagine a world where your child has a rare disease that's so rare, it doesn't have a name and only a handful of people around the world have a similar condition. It can leave you feeling helpless and alone knowing the odds are stacked against you.  This is the situation Bo Bigelow experienced with his daughter, Tess. She suffers from a USP7, a neurodevelopmental disorder that impacts her motor function, speech, and bone development. Tess' condition left Bo looking for help… and he found a lot of other patients and families with other ultra-rare diseases that wanted to share their stories too. Today, Bo's initiatives have given hope to other people and help them find strength in knowing they're not alone.  Join us as we discuss the ways Bo documented his daughter's journey, learn more about USP7-related diseases and their impact, how Bo created the Disorder Channel as a way for other rare disease patients to tell their stories, what progress is being made to learn more about Tess' condition through the Foundation for USP7-Related Diseases, and how you can help advance their research.  Show Notes Rare Disease | Charles RiverFoundation for USP-7 Related DiseasesStronger Every Day BlogStronger Every Day PodcastThe Disorder Channel

Happy (almost) Father's Day to all you incredible Dad-vocates out there. This week I spoke with one exceptional Father, Daniel DeFabio, that saw the injustice of the rare disease world after his son Lucas, was diagnosed with Menkes Disease and decided to take action. Daniel has made a career out of spreading awareness and honoring his son's memory as a rare disease advocate. He co-founded Disorder, the rare disease film festival, as well as the Disorder Channel, is a writer and blogger in residence for Courageous Parents Network, and is the Director of Community Engagement at Global Genes.  I truly appreciated how open, honest, and real he was during our conversation.  We talk about everything from diagnosis, stages of grief,  his career transition to advocacy, how he's making an impact on the rare disease world, what role hope plays in his life, and so much more. Happy listening, friends!

After adjusting his expectations of what raising a child might look like, Daniel began telling Lucas's story with a short documentary film. That film led to Daniel Co-founding DISORDER: The Rare Disease Film Festival and later The Disorder Channel, both dedicated to spreading awareness for patient families facing rare diseases. One of Daniel's stories about Lucas won the 2015 Global Genes Rare Patient Story Award. Daniel was a pioneer of original content online (now called web series) and co-wrote and co-produced the internet's first animated series. He has created videos and marketing materials for bio-techs, hospitals, and most major movie studios, as well as American Cinematographer, PBS, TNT's “The Closer,” and HBO's “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” He has also served as a blogger in residence for Courageous Parents Network.
