Sarc Fighter: Living with Sarcoidosis and other rare diseases

• Episode 146 | A solid dose of perspective and are sarcoidosis patients more likely to get kidney stones?

  In this episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter Podcast, it's time to think.  Borrowing some thoughts from a man who faced a possibly fatal brain condition, I look at how similar his case is to our own -- bearing in mind that he expresses his case so much better than most people can or could.  Also, Sarcoidosis News is out with a study showing that Black Women are more likely to develop kidney stones than other groups.   Show Notes Eric Markowitz's Essay: https://bigthinkmedia.substack.com/p/what-brain-surgery-taught-me-about The Big Think https://substack.com/@bigthinkmedia  Black Women and Kidney Stones https://sarcoidosisnews.com/news/sarcoidosis-increases-risk-kidney-stones-black-women-us/ MORE FROM JOHN: Cycling with Sarcoidosis http://carlinthecyclist.com/category/cycling-with-sarcoidosis/ Do you like the official song for the Sarc Fighter podcast?  It's also an FSR fundraiser!

• Episode 145 | Scarlett is the youngest sarc patient yet

  Scarlette Washlock was diagnosed with sarcoidosis when she was just 12 years old.  Her mother, Kelly McBride, had to raise her daughter with all the anguish and uncertainties that come with Sarcoidosis, compounded by Scarlett's youth and her desire to stay active at school.  Together they succeeded.  Scarlette had a good high school experience and joins me on the podcast from her new freshman digs at Ohio State University, where she hopes a pre-med path is the one she can take.  Listen in as Scarlette and her mom discuss their journey as they took on sarcoidosis.   Show Notes Scarlette's Essays: https://www.stopsarcoidosis.org/diagnosed-at-12-sarcoidosis/   Pediatric Sarcoidosis: How My Skin Was Affected 12-18 Years Old - Future of Personal Health   Sarcoidosis News Story on Ocular Sarc:  https://sarcoidosisnews.com/news/tailored-progressive-treatment-urged-ocular-sarcoidosis-study   MORE FROM JOHN: Cycling with Sarcoidosis http://carlinthecyclist.com/category/cycling-with-sarcoidosis/ Do you like the official song for the Sarc Fighter podcast?  It's also an FSR fundraiser!

• Episode 144 | Cathleen Terrano dances on despite Sarcoidisis

  Cathleen Terrano has sarcoidosis.  It's in her kidneys.  In her heart.  In her lungs.  On her spinal cord.  Other places too.  And yet she has danced with some famous people and keeps on dancing and teaching dance to people who might otherwise miss out on life's precious moments -- like a father-daughter dance at a wedding.  Cathleen rocks bright purple hair so people will ask her about it -- and open a pathway to talk about sarcoidosis.  In this episode of the FSR Sarc fighter podcast hear Cathleen's story. Also an update on FSR's recent awards to young researchers and a big think about how a simple pencil can be a model for us all!   Show Notes Links to Cathleen's many activities: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwXGeOoXOJU   https://www.facebook.com/p/Roll-Call-Wheelchair-Dance-LI-100057573214676/   https://www.newsday.com/.../new-york-emmys-2024-img8jzdl   https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=832500922012341&set=a.526379722624464   https://www.facebook.com/cathleen.terrano/     MORE FROM JOHN: Cycling with Sarcoidosis http://carlinthecyclist.com/category/cycling-with-sarcoidosis/ Do you like the official song for the Sarc Fighter podcast?  It's also an FSR fundraiser!
