Thank you for taking a moment to help combat rare diseases. One of the rarest is ataxia-telangiectasia, and Samuel and Emily both are affected by it. While the two struggle with early symptoms of this neurological disorder, they nonetheless maintain happy attitudes and positive outlooks. This is one brother-sister duo that will continue to stay strong and hope for a cure! And they want to thank YOU for contributing toward a better and healthier future for all A-T kids!

DID YOU KNOW: There are currently just over 7,000 rare diseases identified, affecting 30 million people in the US alone. Although these numbers are staggering, what is of even greater concern is that approximately 75% of those affected are children, making this disease category one of the most deadly and debilitating for our country’s children.
