๐Ÿ’™ Juvenile and Adult-Onset Krabbe Disease Matter, Too ๐Ÿ’™

While infantile and late-infantile Krabbe disease are more commonly recognized, individuals living with juvenile and adult-onset Krabbe disease are an important part of our community and deserve support, understanding, and access to resources.

Because symptoms often develop gradually and can resemble other neurological conditions, many individuals experience a long and challenging diagnostic journey before receiving the correct diagnosis.

If you or someone you know has juvenile or adult-onset Krabbe disease, please know that you are not alone.

KrabbeConnect offers resources, education, support, and opportunities to connect with others who understand the journey.

๐Ÿ“ง Reach out to us at [email protected] to learn more about available resources and support.

Together, we can ensure every individual affected by Krabbe disease feels seen, heard, and supported. ๐Ÿ’™

Big news for the Krabbe community โ€” Mississippi is now screening all newborns for Krabbe disease. ๐Ÿ’™

Early detection can mean a better chance at life, access to treatment, and more time for families to make critical decisions. This progress was built on the courage and stories of the children and adults we lost far too soon. Their lives continue to light the path forward for future generations.

To every family who shared their journey, advocated, educated, and refused to let their loved one be forgotten โ€” thank you. Your voices created lasting change.

Next up on the journey toward newborn screening: California and Arizona! ๐Ÿ™Œ

We are excited to share that Dr. Deepa Rajan, Co-Director of the Neuro-genetics Clinic at UPMC, will be joining us at the KrabbeConnect Family Meeting for a special โ€œAsk the Doctorโ€ session.

This is an incredible opportunity for families navigating Krabbe disease to ask questions, learn from an expert in the field, and have open conversations about care, treatment, and the challenges of this rare disease.

We are so grateful to Dr. Rajan for taking the time to connect directly with our community and help empower families through education and discussion.
