That’s what it’s like to live with Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM).
It’s misunderstood.
And it’s real.

Incredibly grateful @eugene_shostak and @oliverchowMD @WeillCornell for their knowledge and skill they poured out to our#TBM pts tonight at a virtual education night. Our patients are so desperate to be understood. Thank you for being a wonderful center of excellence in TBM!

Next month I have a speaking engagement with a new TBM center on what my why is behind CureTBM. This story came out on this day 7 years ago. Much has changed with my health since then but this remains my why. To prevent others from enduring this.

After a good 8 month sabbatical, I am happy to be back doing what I love the best. Supporting patients, connecting providers, and raising funds for research. I’m very excited about the collaboration going on between patients and providers in US &UK as well as nurse navigators.🙏🏽

So grateful to the researchers that are pushing forward toward a deeper understanding of #TBM
We have a lot more to learn about this diverse patient population whose tracheal disease comes in many shapes and sizes. This is a start. #tracheobronchomalacia #EDAC #TBM
