Ours is a deadly disease. In 2018 we lost 10 children/young adults to the ULTRA-RARE disease Aromatic Amino Acid Decarboxylase deficiency (AADCd) = to 7% of the world population, spanning 30 countries. Before 2018 we lost at least 3 children each year to AADCd.
Your help is vital to ensuring we can continue with our work and enable us to develop the ultimate cure for our children #aRAREgift ... Thank you so much for taking the time to follow our story and donating.
