The program for rare diseases needs to have more financial support so that everyone who needs a medicine can get one through this life saving program. Every family deserves a chance for a better life. If medicine exists for a certin disease, it should be available as soon as possible. For now around 29 medicines are available through the program for around 18 diseases. We will continue as an association of citizens for rare diseases LIFE WITH CHALLENGES to support and fight for patients’ rights. In communication with all relevant institutions we will try to improve quality of life of families facing a life with a rare disease, a life with challenges.
