The Faces of Mitochondrial Disease

To close out Mitochondrial Disease Awareness Week, and perhaps start a year of discoveries that might make a difference for this population, Abby created this awareness video with the help of our friends, who shared their heroic children with us. Take a moment to learn more. (having trouble making this IPhone friendly...forgive us!!)

These young people face daily challenges that are difficult to even imagine.  They do it with incredible grace and courage. They do it because they maintain hope that someday there will be treatments that will make their day to day lives easier and more comfortable.
 Some people never met their Heroes......I gave birth to mine, and have been blessed to meet so many others.
