Today, February 28, we recognize Rare Disease Awareness Day.

As a survivor of PMP (Pseudomyxoma Peritonei)/Appendix Cancer — a rare cancer that affects one in a million persons each year— this day is deeply personal for me.

When you’re diagnosed with something rare, you quickly learn what that word truly means. It means fewer answers. Fewer specialists. Fewer treatment protocols. It means explaining your diagnosis over and over because even in cancer spaces, people haven’t heard of it.

But it also means something powerful.

It means becoming your own advocate.
It means finding strength you didn’t know you had.
It means living with extraordinary gratitude for ordinary days.

PMP changed my life — but it did not define it. It stretched my faith. It deepened my compassion. It sharpened my voice. And it reminded me that rare does not mean alone.

Today I honor every rare disease warrior and every family navigating uncertainty with courage. Your story matters. Your life matters. Your fight matters.

If you are living with a rare diagnosis, please know this: you are seen, you are valued, and you are not invisible.

Rare is not weak.
Rare is resilient.
Rare is powerful.

🎗️Self-Care Saturday

Pause and ask yourself: What do I need today?

🫶 Patients: Your needs may change—and that’s okay.
🫶 Caregivers: You are allowed to need support, too.
🏃🏽‍♂️ Participants: Some days are for pushing, others for protecting.

Listening is an act of self-care.

🎗️Self-Care Saturday

Movement doesn’t have to be intense to be meaningful.

🫶 Patients: Gentle movement can look like stretching or breathing.
🫶 Caregivers: A short walk can be a reset.
🏃🏽‍♀️ Runners/Walkers: Move with intention, not pressure.

Your body is not behind—it’s communicating.

🎗️Self-Care Saturday

Self-care includes nourishment—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

🫶 Patients: Nourishment may be comfort foods or gentle hydration.
🫶 Caregivers: Nourishment may be a quiet meal or moment alone.
🏃🏾‍♀️ Participants: Nourishment supports energy, recovery, and strength.

Feed your body with kindness today.

🎗️Self-Care Saturday

Rest is not quitting—it’s fuel.

🫶 Patients: Rest helps your body do the work it needs to do.
🫶 Caregivers: Rest helps you continue showing up with love.
🏃🏽‍♂️ Participants: Recovery days are part of training, not a setback.

Honor rest today without explanation.
