Manage episode 408330569 series 2655724
In this episode of the podcast we talk with Kristina Robinson, a patient advocate and mother whose son, Axel, was diagnosed with hemophilia A when he was 10 months old. That’s a rare bleeding disorder, sometimes called “classic hemophilia,” that is characterized by excessive bleeding from cuts, unexplained bruising, joint swelling and more. Since her son was diagnosed, Kristina has been his #1 champion, advocating for hemophilia awareness in her home state and beyond.
