Thanks to you and your donations\, together we can contribute to Ataxia research and help people like me. For those who don\'t know us yet\, let us introduce ourselves! • Me\, Dominique\: I am a young woman living with Friedreich\'s Ataxia (or rather “being a roommate with Friedreich\'s Ataxia” as I often say). Although I can\'t get around without a wheelchair\, I remain a go-getter and absolutely nothing stops me! My thirst for adventure for\, among other things\, traveling has led me to travel to more than 15 countries! • Manon is my mother. Every day for more than 30 years\, she has dedicated her life to me! In addition to having transmitted her huge interest in traveling\, she demonstrates positivism to me on a daily basis. According to her\, every obstacle in life has its solution...you just have to find it to access something better! • Trine is my sister. Our relationship is amazing and we both know very well that we can count on each other at all times! She is also passionate about traveling. Moreover\, it’s in 2024 that her passion for traveling has switch to a passion for traveling … with family (above all with her little sister)! Together\, Manon\, Trine and I share the hope of a treatment for present and future generations! Although we have no doubts about the research in progress\, our mission for the moment is to make family\, friends and colleagues aware of the rare Friedreich Ataxia’s disease.
