A proposito di questo titolo

 Welcome to 'My rare disease' podcast. This is a platform where I raise awareness of something that affects 1 in 15 people, rare disease. By chatting to patients, health professionals and advocates, we talk about all aspects of rare disease including relationships, mental health and much more. I cannot wait for you to hear some truly inspiring stories from some absolutely amazing people. From being diagnosed with a rare disease myself at 10 weeks old, it has given me the motivation to give others in the rare disease community an opportunity to share their thoughts and experiences.Katy Baker Igiene e vita sana

    I really enjoyed talking to Annabelle about her chronic illness Cystic Fibrosis.

Annabelle has really highlighted how much chronic illness can affect every element of your life including schooling and friendships. Thank you Annabelle for sharing your story.
