Motivational Monday – Ability to Help Others
Since being diagnosed with Friedreich’s Ataxia, I have found myself more empathetic and compassionate to others who face a battle and/or chronic illness. My battles with FA have allowed me to grow as a person. I can help others grow too by being able to relate to and understand each other.
These experiences can help create the ability to help others in a positive way. Who is someone you helped or has helped you?

I have a friend whose children have SMA. She was a help to me in the early days of my son’s diagnosis of FA. It is such a gift to find people who can really understand. I hope to be able to do that for others as well!

I love seeing the rare disease community always coming together- it seems as though everyone is very compassionate, understanding and caring because they know the hardships a rare disease can bring.
