Episode 36: Dionne Stalling - PI & CIDP
In this 2-part series with Dionne Stalling, we focus on four of the nine conditions that affect her.
In part 1, we talk about primary immunodeficiency and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy. In Dionne's case, both conditions are linked and she shares how. Dionne is a single mum who has had to juggle with a lot of doctor's appointments whilst raising her two children. She opens up about the toll living with rare diseases has had on her family. We also talk about patient advocacy and the organization she created, Rare and Black.
The first song Dionne selected is Heaven Knows by Lalah Hathaway.
