To try to focus on the ugly reality of Friedreich’s Ataxia, along with the

brunt of stereotype, stigma and presumed lack of ability. Our place in the
economy is defined by our “disutility”.

have been considerable, but there is still the possibility of further and
ongoing achievement, as there is with all who have to battle with
Friedreich’s Ataxia.
