40:49Welcome to our summer series. You probably noticed a change in the intro right? Lol. We believe summer should be full of fun, good vibes, and great tunes! Was Michael A founded Rare Patient Voice in 2013 to give patients and family caregivers with rare diseases, the opportunity to voice their opinions and research studies. This year the company celebrates its 10th anniversary. Rare Patient Voice has now conducted thousands of studies and rewarding patients and family caregivers with over $10 million dollars for their participation. Many have been recruited in person by West himself at patient events and through a robust referral program with patient advocacy and support groups. Rare Patient Voice now covers non-rare as well as rare diseases and conditions and has expanded from the United States to Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Australia, and New Zealand Before launching Rare Patient Voice, Wes worked for healthcare market research firm Cantar health. He previously was a brand manager in marketing research manager at McCormick, the spice Company, and General Mills, working on Wheaties, total and kix cereals. He has a BA from the University of Pennsylvania and an MBA from the University of Chicago. I like to think of Wes, regardless of all his many accolades, as just another good dude and rare patient advocate. He is helping the community through one research study at a time. You can find Wes and the RPV team through these social media platforms: Website: https://rarepatientvoice.com Facebook: https://rarepatientvoice.com Insta: https://www.instagram.com/rarepatientvoice Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rare-patient-voice…

39:19Megan is changing how rare disease families interact. With the help of social media, Megan's spin on the day-to-day lives of rare diseases has us laughing a bit more. You can see in her Instagram reels as she tells the truth through deadpan humor. You will like this creator for sure on today's show! Megan is a mom to twins — identical 18-year-old girls — and a 14-year- old son. She, her husband, and her kids live just outside of Phoenix. She is a writer, caregiver, and mom. Maybe most importantly, Megan is also an advocate for rare diseases and rare disease caregiving. She feeds her soul with her career and works at ANGEL AID CARES uplifting other caregivers. She is currently the chair of the Arizona Angioma Community Alliance and treasurer of the HOD Association in her “free” time. Follow her on Facebook, or Instagram, or check out her website! meganloden.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/megan.loden.5?ref=bookmarks Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/megan.loden/…

44:08In today's episode, we chat with a gentleman who was diagnosed with a rare disease in mid-life!! Meet Dan Dry-Dock Shockley (Veteran) Retired Navy, Operation Desert Storm; Enduring and Iraqi Freedom veteran and 10-year rare disease virtual international live-case presentation. Diagnosed w/hereditary colon cancer syndrome, attenuated FAP, in 2012. As a result of hereditary colon cancer syndrome diagnosis and colon removal surgery, I have an ostomy. An ostomy is a type of surgery that creates an opening in the abdomen that causes a change in the way stool exits the body. So I wear a prosthetic pouching system. You would never know it if I didn’t tell you. It's important to note that attenuated FAP is an autosomal dominant germline mutation. Dr. Henry T. Lynch, the founding father of hereditary cancer research, is credited with discovering AFAP. It's estimated that less than .03 percent of the global population are impacted by AFAP. I undergo routine endoscopic surveillance to monitor its progress. Last year I underwent successful pancreas-sparing duodenectomy resection surgery @ Stanford University Hospital. This surgery is directly related to AFAP. I've embraced this diagnosis from the onset and created an acronym for ADAPT: Attitude Determines the Ability for a Positive Transformation. Early detection is vital. I'm living proof. My purpose is to educate the world about AFAP as a virtual international live-case presentation for AFAP, continuing the legacy of Dr. Henry T. Lynch, on the importance of early detection in hopes of saving lives. Here are some groups that Dan collaborates with pertaining to attenuated FAP: http://fapgene.com/ https://coloncancerpreventionproject.org/ You can follow him on social media: Twitter: @dryshockley LinkedIn: Dan Dry Dock Shockley…
