Cameryn’s story is a powerful reminder of why we can’t wait for progress in Ataxia treatment development.

Watch her story, then share your own on social media with #KnowAtaxia to raise awareness and bring us closer—together—to a world without Ataxia.
Share your story about living with Ataxia. For Cameryn. For everyone still fighting. Every voice brings us closer to a cure!
