Help Joel raise money

For participating in Servus Calgary Marathon 2024

My Story…

Our mission is to energize and support patients, families, and healthcare providers across Canada through education, awareness, advocacy, and support and investment in research. We are facilitating a future where Canadians impacted by this debilitating disease feel inspired, empowered, and supported to live their best lives.

Mitochondrial disease is a broad term that covers a wide range of mitochondrial disorders and syndromes.

There are hundreds of diseases associated with mitochondrial disease. Symptoms affect everyone differently and can vary from mild to life-threatening. Younger people tend to have more debilitating conditions.

Most people with a mitochondrial disease experience symptoms that affect multiple systems at the same time. Common symptoms are grouped together and referred to as syndromes. Mitochondrial disease is divided into two distinct categories – primary mitochondrial disease and secondary mitochondrial dysfunction. The distinction is important as each has a unique genetic basis, diagnosis and treatment strategies.
