#MyRareFootprints

Rare disease doesn't discriminate. Each year, millions of patients, their families and friends, are impacted by a rare disease diagnosis. Every story is different, each journey remarkable.

#MyRareFootprints is an awareness campaign designed to tell the story of where we have traveled on our rare journeys. For patients, it's a chance to tell the story of where we have been and where we are headed. For loved ones and caregivers, it's a chance to share the story of the footprints a rare loved one has left on our hearts. 

Want to participate? Send us a very brief video clip (10 seconds or less) or photo of yourself or a loved one impacted by rare disease and we will add your submission to our video project, scheduled to premiere during our event week. 

Just follow these easy steps to join us:

1. Send us a pic or short video to  us at 24hoursofrare@mycitymed.com.
2. Include the following in your email:                             

• You or your loved ones name and diagnosis
• A waiver (see the language below)
  

Then be sure to register for the event and join us throughout the week for amazing content. Thank you for participating!
