🔬 10 years ago, PURA Syndrome was discovered. Today, on PURA Syndrome Awareness Day, we reflect on the progress that has been made but also acknowledge the urgent need for more research. There is still no treatment and no cure. As we mark this decade of discovery, we ask for your support. Raising awareness and funding is crucial to advancing research that can lead to life-changing breakthroughs for families living with PURA Syndrome. Every contribution counts – whether by sharing information, making a donation, or simply amplifying the voices of those in the PURA Syndrome community. Together, we can fuel momentum towards a treatment and a cure. Learn more and donate at jackstomorrow.org. #PURASyndrome #JacksTomorrow #PURASyndromeAwarenessDay

Living kidney donation can be life-saving, but many people wonder if there are age restrictions to donating. A common misunderstanding is that older people cannot donate their kidneys. But really, age is just one of many things considered, and the answer is not as simple as a strict cutoff age. Understanding how age affects kidney donation can clear up any questions and help potential donors make more informed decisions. Visit our website to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gg6R9F2t

❓Can we raise 5.000 kr together for Cykelnerven / Scleroseforeningen with this post? ❓ If you see this post, I challenge you to support my fundraiser with 10kr. It’s easy and rewarding. Link in the comments. — I have an issue with my fundraiser for Cykelnerven / Scleroseforeningen this year - not a single donation so far 😢 Every penny travels uncut to R&D and real help for the ones living with sclerosis. I’ve had between 1.000 and 2.000 impressions on my fundraiser posts recently. If just 500 people donated 10kr we would have reached 5.000kr. 1 in 350 people are diagnosed with MS in Denmark, that’s 8.5x the rest of the world average 😱 We have no clue why. How creepy is that? That’s one of the reasons we need to raise funds for this cause - for a world without MS. Even small contributions make a big difference.

Every year, thousands of lives are lost in #roadaccidents, leaving behind families shattered and waiting. But what if those moments of tragedy could bring hope to someone else? Organ donation is about giving someone a second chance at life. The truth is that while laws like the Human Organ Transplant Act ensure that organ donations are ethical and voluntary, the real impact comes from individuals deciding to donate. It's a choice that can save the lives of thousands who are waiting for a miracle. In this conversation, I dive into the importance of #organdonation and how even in the darkest of times, there’s the possibility to give others a brighter future.

Hello everyone! I am continuing to raise money for EndoFound as I train for the NYC Marathon, and I would be so grateful for donations of any amount. If I don’t raise my minimum amount, I pay for the rest out of pocket, so anything helps! Bonus if your company offers donation matching ☺️ The Endometriosis Foundation of America is a non-profit organization that strives to increase disease recognition, provide advocacy, facilitate expert surgical training, and fund landmark endometriosis research. Without their efforts, it may have taken me longer to discover the signs and symptoms of endometriosis, which lead to my own diagnosis almost 3 years ago. Endometriosis is very common, with about 1 in 10 women experiencing this disease (200 million women worldwide). It is in the top 20 most painful conditions. There is, on average, a 7-10 year delay in diagnosis, and is one of the leading causes of infertility. Endo is often found in the pelvic cavity but has also been found in the kidneys, lungs, diaphragm, and brain. It can cause a wide range of symptoms and is considered a whole-body disease that can greatly reduce quality of life in those who have it. We need more research and advocacy for endometriosis so we can reduce the amount of time it takes to diagnose and treat it. Please consider donating to be part of this change! Anything helps!
