Today, on #aHUSAwarenessDay, we recognize the patients and families living with a rare and often unpredictable disease, and the community working alongside them!!
Every story adds to what we know. Every question still unanswered gives us a reason to keep going.
New in @BloodPortfolio 🩸

#KidneyWeek always brings new science, inspiring talks, & the best reunions 🤩
Loved learning, presenting, & most importantly catching up with friends & colleagues.
The lead-up is stressful, but the week after always feels a little too quiet! Until next time ♥️
@ASNKidney
Behind every aHUS diagnosis is a family fighting fear, hope, and uncertainty.
On #aHUSAwareness Day, we honor their strength and push for timely diagnosis, greater access to care and brighter tomorrows!!

Saw a transplant patient in clinic today who expressed deep gratitude for his second chance at life and said HOPE now means: Helping Other People Everyday!
A powerful reminder that healing isn’t just personal - it’s something we can pass on ♥️
