February is Rare Disease Awareness Month and the 28 is Rare Disease Awareness Day.  Our youngest son has a rare disease called Immune Thrombocytopenia or ITP for short.  It causes his immune system to mistake platelets as invaders to his body and attack and destroy them and can put him at risk for life threatening bleeding.  It has played a major role in shaping his childhood thus far and over the last 3 years the PDSA has been a huge source of inspiration, knowledge, and support for our family.

This year for Rare Disease Awareness Month, and ending on Rare Disease Day, we are hosting a fundraiser to give back to the organization who has done so much for us and countless others with ITP, and we are asking for your help too!  If you’d like to read more about the PDSA and all the great things they do, their website is www.PDSA.org

Thank you for your support, we all fight stronger together!
