Support Children with Periodic Paralysis by purchasing a PPA Ponies T-Shirt.

Did you know that Equine Veterinarians know more about Periodic Paralysis (PP) than most doctors that have humans for their clients? We are trying to change that. We also want to change the isolation that children that have PP experience by reminding them they have pony friends that also can suffer from PP too.  Unfortunately, Periodic Paralysis (also known as PP) is a complicated and rare condition that many find hard to believe. Why is this so? It’s hard to believe or even comprehend, that just a moment ago someone with PP was competing in a sport or dancing at a wedding but is now unable to move their legs or any part of their body.  The explanation for the sudden change in mobility is literally in the name. The paralysis is periodic and can happen at any time, especially following an activity.

There are more triggers and information that you can learn about regarding this fascinating and complicated condition.  You can help stop this stigma in its tracks. Help spread awareness by purchasing a T-Shirt and wearing it proudly, whether you have PP or not. You can also help by donating directly to the PPA by clicking here.
