My two year old son was diagnosed with HSP and suffered for about 2.5 months straight. He had seven ER visits and one transfer to UVA. With this rare disease, he has dealt with swelling throughout his body, large painful ?rashes? covering his body that leave bruises, arthritis, internal pain, rashes in the mouth, and severe sensitivity to touch. The only treatment, steroids, caused him to hallucinate and was discontinued. There is no cure and little is known about HSP. My hope is to create a foundation to further the research on this disease so nobody else has to suffer like this, and to hear there is no cure.
