What is an Orphan Disease?: A disease that affects fewer than 200,000 people nationwide. Quote: OPTIONAL FOR BONUS TICKET Educate me on one of the Orphan Diseases out there Disease Name:(Acquired) Aplastic AnemiaHow rare is it?: Between 600 and 900 people are diagnosed with aplastic anemia each year in the U.S. Summarize what it's like:I just want to start this by saying, I hadn't a clue what it was until I saw my mother deteriorate and die within 2 months of "getting it". So I still don't really understand. It's basically a disease that attacks all red/white blood cells and kills all bone marrow, but according to a website... Acquired aplastic anemia is a rare, serious blood disorder, due to failure of the bone marrow failure to produce blood cells. In acquired aplastic anemia, an almost complete absence of hematopoietic stem cells results in low levels of red and white blood cells and platelets. Symptoms of aplastic anemia are those of anemia, bleeding, and infection. Although bone marrow failure can occur secondary to other disorders, most aplastic anemia is due to the immune system mistakenly targeting the bone marrow.

Infants with this syndrome end up having a cry that sounds like a cat. They also will likely have other physical and/or developmental complications. Most fatal complications from this syndrome will occur before the infant's 1st birthday. Children that survive past this first year will generally have a normal life expectancy. Congrats on the recovery. I am glad to hear you are doing much better and wish you continual success in the future.

I'd previously read about it in your status updates but before that I'd never heard of it. What disease/illness/syndrome has affected your family the most? : Right now, Alzheimer's. We're fairly certain my grandpa has it, but my grandma is still struggling to admit it, so she hasn't taken him to a doctor for a diagnosis. Several of us had to write letters to the state to have his license revoked, which was one of the most difficult things I've had to do, but it was better than the alternative of him hurting someone when his abilities to make decisions are hindered. What is an Orphan Disease?: A disease ignored by drug companies because they're not profitable. Often these are ones that affect less than 200k people, but they can also be ones that we don't deal with a lot in developed countries, and people in developing countries can't afford the medicine, so pharmaceutical companies ignore them. Quote: OPTIONAL FOR BONUS TICKET Educate me on one of the Orphan Diseases out there Disease Name:Thalidomide embryopathyHow rare is it?: 1-9/1,000,000 - Another site says over 10k between the years of 1957-1961 Summarize what it's like: Basically, Thalidomide was a drug given for all number of reasons, including nausea and morning sickness. Exposure during the first trimester it can cause death in infants as well as a range of other abnormalities. One of my uncles is handicapped, and it's believed this or another medication during my grandma's pregnancy was the cause.

Quote: OPTIONAL FOR BONUS TICKET Educate me on one of the Orphan Diseases out there Disease Name:Eosinophilic esophagitisHow rare is it?: Less than 200,000 cases a year Summarize what it's like:You are basically allergic to food. Your body sees food something to attack, which causes a constant allergic reaction in the throat. This is swelling in the throat that makes it hard for the patient to swallow, and can even distort the esophagus to contain rings. This can cause vomiting, food getting stuck, stomach pains, and intestinal issues. It affects all age groups. You constantly undergo a sensation of choking, and it limits your appetite because you don't want to choke, and nothing you do really makes it better. Some people have had to go so far as to insert feeding tubes to try and bypass food going down their throats, and may even be stuck on formulas instead of food. There is no cure for this disease. It is just being discovered, so it is basically only in the testing phase of what might work on it. There is marginal success with medications and diet changes, but nothing can make it comfortable to eat.
