116 people ordered Congenital Hyperinsulinism International T-shirts to wear today, Rare Disease Day, 2011. The fabulous “Be my sugar.” T-shirts, which are available at http://www.cafepress.com/Congenitalhyperins, were sported in many places around world, in English, French, and Spanish, from Australia, to Canada, to the U.S. We are looking forward to hearing all of your stories about wearing the shirts and about any Rare Disease Day events that may have taken place in your hometown. The shirts went viral in our neck of the woods. 36 teachers and students wore the shirts at my kids’ high school. Our local blog did a nice article covering the events of the day, which I’ll share with you here: http://kids.baristanet.com/2011/02/rare-disease-day-congenital-hyperinsulinism/
