One Voice. Opening Doors for Rare

In this episode of South Asian Women in Rare, Neena shares her journey of living with Jansen's disease, an ultra-rare bone disease, and how her experiences led her to build a global community for others living with the condition. We talk about growing up with disability, South Asian culture and family, raising children with the same rare condition, navigating healthcare, and why patient voices are so important in shaping research and treatment. Neena also shares what it really means to be a “disease builder” when there is little existing knowledge, research or funding. A conversation about resilience, family, advocacy and creating change when you're starting with almost nothing.
