Today is National Rare Disease Day - a day to raise awareness of the nearly 10,000 rare diseases. It's also about improving access to treatment and medical representation for these individuals and their families. DEEs are rare, but you are not alone. #rarediseaseday #DEEs

We know that many within our community, around 50%, have a DEE that remains undiagnosed. To all those undiagnosed, we are honored to serve as your patient/family advocacy organization and are here for you! Please know, you’re never alone! #DEEs #undiagnosed

For those who have trouble leaving the house with medically fragile children, telehealth has emerged as an incredible resource. That picked up in the COVID pandemic. Our past webinar focuses on telehealth, considerations and potential benefits. #telehealth loom.ly/Vg26qZw

Every March 26 is Purple Day, the international day for epilepsy. It is a day to raise awareness, support related causes and share information. One of the most common actions is to wear purple. If you are wearing purple today we'd love to see it in the comments! #purpleday
