DakotasTeam

Dakota was diagnosed at 3 months old with Von Willebrands Disease after multiple bleeding events, starting at just a few hours old when she bled for several hours after a vitamin K shot immediately after birth. Through genetic testing we found out she has type 2A, and unfortunately is not in the mild category like most people. She is very well into the moderate category, which has resulted in several ER trips and even a hospitalization to stop her bleeding. Our goal is to fundraise and raise awareness, as we have learned that bleeding disorders are so much more common than we ever realized.
