In this episode we learn about David's rare disease Occipital Horn Syndrome as well as some of the day-to-day challenges people with rare disease can encounter including finding affordable travel insurance, additional barriers within the education system and visiting new hospitals where you are having to teach professionals about your rare disease. We discuss how awareness in all of these areas is really important but also how David's rare disease has steered him to now work in the rare disease sector.
