  • Emilia Quezada felt that her life was just beginning. She was living in Mexico City and started an exciting job working for Red Bull while studying for a degree in Italian. The first sign that something was wrong, was a tremor in her hand. She experienced a number of devastating wrong diagnoses before finally getting diagnosed with Wilson disease. She was relieved to have the right diagnosis, worked hard to regain all that she lost with medication and therapy, but then struggled to find an available treatment that worked. A doctor wrongly told her to stop taking her medication and her health deteriorated. She's fighting her way back again to good health and credits her determination, positive attitude and an amazing support network of friends and family. Here is her story.

I was ignoring the symptoms for alittle while and even laughing at times I brush near death but it's how I coped in feeling hopeless since the system is only pushing people down
