Krabbe Awareness Month: Day Thirty

Krabbe Awareness - 30

We hope you’ve learned something new this month, but we also hope that you’ve been moved to take action.

What can you do?

  • Write/call your legislators. It only takes a few minutes, and it can make a huge difference.
  • Donate to organizations like Hunter’s Hope so that they can continue funding the Leukodystrophy Care Network and supporting affected families.
  • Read (and tell others about) my book, Even So, Joy: Our Journey Through Heartbreak, Hope, and Triumph. We want Tori’s story to continue to touch lives and it means so much when we hear about others reading it.

Krabbe Awareness - 26

South Carolina passed a bill after this image was created, so they will begin testing in the next 1-2 years.

Indiana expects to begin testing in 2020.

Pennsylvania will hopefully be testing by next year. We have a bill in the legislature (HB 730, numbered for Tori’s birthday) that will make screening equal throughout PA, and Krabbe will become mandatory. If you live in Pennsylvania, please contact your state representatives/senators and ask for their support!
