Mikey's Minions

Mikey's Minions Come help us raise money and awareness for Hemophilia! We are a group of family and friends of Michael Sanger.

Mikey was born in 2006 and diagnosed with Hemophilia Type A Severe shortly thereafter. We raise money each year to benefit Hemophilia Foundation of Michigan at the annual "Walk on the Wildside"

This morning we received an alarming message from a new follower concerning the activities of a member- we had hoped to never have to make a post about this but
For the past year someone has been impersonating Kim on the app Newsbreak
This person has been commenting the most vile things possible, things that are opposite to her actual character or beliefs
We are aware of the video circulating claiming Kim is an abuser and encourages these behaviors in others, as well as the person impersonating her on the app “Newsbreak”
If you see these posts please report them- comment that this is NOT HER (not that it matters but she doesn’t even have a daughter) authorities have been contacted and can do nothing. Police reports have been filed
Some will say posting this is only encouraging them, but we cannot simply say nothing.
If you know who is doing this, or are participating in these actions it is time to move on. Please stop.

🩸 Why Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month Matters

Millions of people live with bleeding disorders.

Yet many remain undiagnosed.

Awareness helps:

✔ people recognize symptoms
✔ families find answers
✔ doctors diagnose sooner
✔ communities support each other

When we talk about bleeding disorders, we help people get the care they deserve.

Together, we raise awareness. 💙

🩸 Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month: What is Hemophilia?

Hemophilia is a rare, usually inherited bleeding disorder where the blood does not clot properly because of low levels of clotting factors — Factor VIII or Factor IX. This can cause prolonged bleeding after injuries, surgery, or sometimes spontaneous bleeding into joints and muscles.

Key facts about Hemophilia:

🔹 Types: Hemophilia A (Factor VIII deficiency) and Hemophilia B (Factor IX deficiency)
🔹 Symptoms: Frequent nosebleeds, prolonged bleeding from minor cuts, easy bruising, joint pain, or swelling
🔹 Severity: Mild, moderate, or severe, depending on clotting factor levels

💉 Treatment: Often involves replacing the missing clotting factor through intravenous infusion so people can live full and active lives.

There is also Acquired Hemophilia, a rare condition where the immune system attacks clotting factors, even in people with no family history of the disorder.

What kind of Hemophilia do you have? Tell us in the comments!

Together, we raise awareness, drive diagnosis, and support the bleeding disorders community. 💙

How rare is a rare disease? A disease is considered rare if it affects less than 1 in 2,000 people. Haemophilia is rare, but some bleeding disorders are very rare; affecting as few as 1 in 1 million people.

But for those people living with the condition it doesn’t feel rare at all.

💜 is an opportunity for all of us to come together worldwide to raise awareness about what it is like to live with a rare health condition.

💜 Rare Disease Day 💜

Bleeding disorders — including hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, and other rare factor deficiencies — are considered rare diseases. While each condition may affect a small percentage of the population, there are many who still go undiagnosed.

Today, we raise awareness for everyone living with a rare bleeding disorder — and for those still searching for answers. We advocate for research, earlier diagnosis, equitable access to care, and policies that protect life-sustaining treatment.

Rare doesn’t mean invisible. Rare doesn’t mean alone. 💪💙

📢 Healthcare is a Lifeline, Not a Line Item.

HFA joins 39 other non-profit, non-partisan organizations to speak out against the devastating healthcare cuts being proposed in Congress. As the House Energy & Commerce and Ways & Means Committees begin budget markups, we are raising a united voice to say: patients should not be collateral damage.

Proposals on the table could:
🔻 Strip healthcare access from 13.7 million people through a combination of Medicaid cuts and ACA marketplace plan restrictions.
🔻 Undermine the integrity of Marketplace health plans.
🔻 Add red tape, slash doctor access, and leave states scrambling.
🔻 Erect new barriers for people seeking affordable, quality care.

🩸 For the bleeding disorders community, these are not abstract policy debates. Medicaid and the ACA provide lifesaving access to treatment, factor products, and specialized care. Cuts like these would hit low-income families, people with disabilities, and those with chronic conditions the hardest.

We stand firm: everyone deserves care. We urge Congress to reject these reckless proposals and prioritize the health and dignity of the people they serve.
