" In this episode we’re exploring the often-overlooked mental health impact of rare disease across every stage of the journey, from the uncertainty before diagnosis to treatment, remission, and beyond. Licensed social worker Doris Dahdouh joins us to discuss the emotional realities patients, caregivers, and siblings face, including anxiety, grief, guilt and isolation, while offering practical ways to cope through clear communication, intentional support, daily routines, gratitude, and peer connection. The conversation is compassionate, validating, and deeply practical, reminding listeners that feeling overwhelmed is normal and that no one has to navigate rare disease alone."
