Living with Epidermolysis Bullosa has first-hand accounts written by
parents and patients who are living or have lived with EB, and was
compiled to help people in general understand how it is like to truly live
with every form of Epidermolysis Bullosa; from the milder Simplex
variants, who are nonetheless not simple to live with, to the more lethal,
namely Junctional, whose patients usually succumb to before their first
birthday. The stories you will read are from proud parents, or patients
and their struggles and how they are coping. Some stories are sad, some
are encouraging, and everything in between.

In 2005 and 2006, many American families who have been impacted by Epidermolysis
Bullosa, a rare but extremely devastating genetic disease, worked hard to convince
legislators to enact National Epidermolysis Bullosa Awareness Week, in order to raise
public awareness and understanding about the prevalence of EB, the impact it has on
families, and the need for additional research toward finding a cure.

In 2006, the House of Representatives and the Senate voted to formalize the last week of
October of every year as National Epidermolysis Bullosa Awareness Week.

This is the inaugural year of our special awareness week, and the people of the United
States and interested groups are encouraged to support the week through appropriate
ceremonies and activities to promote public awareness and to foster understanding of the
impact of EB on patients and their families, especially by participating in the EB Relay and
associated Rallies!
