Happy Leap Day!! 📅 / Happy Rare Disease Day!! 💗
In addition to Leap Day, today is also National Rare Disease Day. And I am celebrating today for my hero: my little cousin Brookelyn. 💛
Boogie has Bacterial Meningitis. While this disease is not extremely "rare", it CAN lead to many other rare diseases, like (in Boogie's case) Infantile Spasms and Hydrocephalus. We need to spread awareness, not just for these rare diseases, but for all illnesses out there. People today don't realize how serious some of the more "common" diseases can be or become for those suffering from them. All diseases need to be equally recognized and supported.
Brookelyn has been through a lot since she was diagnosed at 4 months, but 7 years later she's still smiling and proof that even the impossible is possible.
💛 Bucks 4 Brookelyn 💛
Please visit her website, read about her inspiring story, and donate!
Every penny counts. 💗💙💚
