SUMMARY:Rare Disease Day 2022
DESCRIPTION:February 28th marks the 12th annual Rare Disease Day (RDD). \nObserved on the rarest day of the year\, the global event campaigns for equity for the over 7\,000 rare diseases currently identified. Among those rare diseases is cystinosis. Cystinosis is a genetic\, lysosomal storage disorder where unusual cystine accumulation occurs in every cell in the body. The cystine buildup causes tissue and organ failure\, leading to kidney failure\, muscle wasting\, swallowing difficulty\, diabetes\, photophobia\, and more. Our cystinosis community is known to have a population of 2\,000 worldwide with 600 residing in the U.S. \nIf you are ready to take action\, here are a few ways we can work together make a better world for those living with a rare disease.
