Heute ist der #RareDiseaseDay, der Tag der Seltenen Erkrankungen, jährlich am 28.02.
Eine davon ist das #GuillainBarreSyndrom - 1 bis 2 Fälle pro 100.000 im Jahr. Daher auch oft länger nicht erkannt.
Selten, bis es Dich trifft. Daher: #Barrierefreiheit geht alle an, früher oder später.

In Pōneke today to have tea with the Queen* at Government House and to celebrate local heros of rare disorder advocacy. My speech went well, even my te reo held up, and I had some amazing conversations with people who show up for others every day, even when it is hard and seems hopeless.

Humanity won this day my friends, and I fly home tonight tired but restored.

*my old mate the Governor General, Dame Cindy Kiro

Continued thread

Of course, none of this is really about me, it's about the way we support and care (or not) for some of the most vulnerable in our society.

Thursday the 29th of February was International #RareDiseaseDay, but here in NZ we've gone ahead and claimed the entire month of March as #RareDisordersMonth

Rare is everywhere. 300,000 people in NZ alone are affected. More than diabetes, more than the population of Wellington. It's time for rare people to be seen.

Being the rarest day of the year, today is also #RareDiseaseDay

My son Miles has Hypophosphatasia (HPP) which is a rare genetic disease that leads to under mineralized bones, respiratory compromise, tooth loss, and seizures.

From an extended NICU stay, a trach, numerous surgeries, broken bones 🦴 , over 1000 💉 and more 🧑‍⚕️ appointments than I can count, it has been an incredible journey.

So in celebration of him and everything that makes him rare, Happy Rare Disease Day!

NEW: Just one faulty gene on chromosome 15 leads to Angelman syndrome, characterized by a happy demeanor and developmental disabilities. A cure is coming, but identifying patients in Hong Kong aand ensuring they can access treatments is hard.
