This site is a place for the people who love a child with a rare disease, disorder or illness… the child, parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, grandparents, guardians, cousins and beloved friends. I am the mother of a son with a rare pediatric disease, JORRP, and the last two years have been a journey for our family and loved ones. We have felt fear and triumph, desperation and hope. I have never felt more supported, or more isolated. I hope to use this website as a place to share information, support and stories. This website and community will grow through your contributions. So please, consider sharing information or a story or building a profile. Thank you. xo, nora
