August is Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Awareness Month, and we have a whole series planned for y’all! We will be posting videos throughout August covering different SMA topics. Here’s what we’ll be sharing:
1. What is SMA? A general overview plus some specifics on my SMA.
2. What causes SMA? Come get bio-nerdy with us! We’ll go over the details that make SMA what it is.
3. What are the treatments for SMA? We’ll go over the options that are currently available as well as those on the horizon.
4. And lastly, a story time. We’ll tell you about treatment journey. • What is SMA? | August ...
We are cousins who love to travel, but the world is not always as welcoming to varied abilities as it should be. Here we will be sharing with you our adventures and some of the ways we have learned to make the not-so-accessible accessible. It’s not always easy but where there’s a will there is (usually) a way!
