PWS Tip of the Week: Rare Disease Day 2022
On the last day of February every year we celebrate Rare Disease Day to acknowledge and bring awareness of both children and adults living with rare diseases. This year we will be highlighting our students with PWS and other rare diseases with pictures, both old and new, and quotes from their families about what makes their child both unique and wonderful! At Latham we celebrate rare every day and we look forward to sharing our experiences with the rare disease community all next week.
