Rare Disease Awareness

No story should end too soon because of a rare disease, but far too many do. Wear your stripes and help raise awareness for these rare diseases with this collection. 

All sales benefit Nichole Rose's husband, Court, who is fighting an extremely rare genetic condition called GATA2 Deficiency Syndrome.

He is one of only 1,000 people with the disease, and one of only 5 with his specific variant.

GATA2 is a life-threatening genetic mutation that causes bone marrow failure, severe immunodeficiency, blood cancers, lupus, and a number of serious (and often fatal) infections and complications. Nearly 80% of cases will result in acute leukemia, and almost half of all GATA2 patients die by the age of 40, with the mortality rate jumping to 69% by the age of 60. 

The only known cure is a stem cell transplant.
