Help us stop the stigma about visible differences. Tell the world what you love to do & what makes you who you are.
Be seen. Be heard. Be accepted. #FaceEquality#WeWillNotHide#moebiussyndrome#MSF

@RichardEngel So very sorry to hear this. Henry and his family have been, and will continue to be, inspirations for many in the #raredisease community.

It's amazing to see how #RareDiseaseDay has grown since it was launched in Europe by EURORDIS in 2008 and brought to the US by NORD in 2009. #ShowYourStripes to keep the momentum growing! #RareDiseases
Our letter to @nytimes editor responding to #NIPT screening article has been published. ACMG Pres-Elect Dr. Susan Klugman explains these are screening, not diagnostic, tests; more definitive tests follow positive screens, & pretest counseling is crucial. https://t.co/8JaG6ZeuWm
"We cannot treat #rarediseases as luxury items where #diagnoses and #treatments are sparse and available only to a few or only the well-off." Great article from @genedocrare in The Hill. https://t.co/aLpBDo0e8q
