My Survivor Support Advocacy Qualifications
I am a survivor of Hemophilia
Over my 69 years facing various health challenges I have learned that people with chronic conditions look for someone who takes the time to listen to their story. Once I develop an understanding of what a person is going through, building trust and respect along the way, I feel I can empower them to rise above their circumstance to lead a better quality of life.
Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
In 2005 my liver failed from hepatitis c from Factor VIII. I went into a coma and received a liver transplant at UCLA.
As many in my hemophilia community died from HIV-AIDS or hepatitis c my mission was to give back. It has become a passion for me for the last 17 years.
I want to share my journey with hemophilia and other health issues due to having a bleeding disorder. The silver lining is the experiences have added to my skill set as an advocate and attributes I would have never had otherwise.
In 1955 I was born with hemophilia and for the first 1 years the treatment was barely adequate. I suffered multiple joint damage which has led to severe arthritis and having to use a wheelchair full time. While our community saw a much better treatment Factor 8 developed in the mid 60's in the 1980's this blood product was infected with HIVAIDS and Hepatitis C. I was able to avoid HIV but not Hep C. In 2005 from the Hep C put me in liver failure. I was saved by a liver transplant at U.C.L.A in December of 2005. As I was in a coma for 5 weeks my recovery took over 18 months.
When I did gain most of my mobility and strength I decided to give back to the hemophilia community as an advocate. Advocacy for now 17 years in the hemophilia community as well as different diseases has brought me a feeling of purpose I have not felt with anything else I have done in my life. i have been fortunate to have had good mentors along the way. Moreover, I have found the ability to learn how to connect with people who have gone through serious health issues and hopefully benefited by having someone like myself address their struggles in a thoughtful way.
