Experiences of Life with Usher syndrome

A Luminary Story: Rebecca Alexander

"Living with Usher syndrome is hard and it’s emotional. It has allowed me to feel so incredibly alive. My biggest hope now is that the impact of what I do with my life will encourage other people who face similar challenges or even different challenges to confront their fears. So many of us live in fear and we need to learn how to live with our fears." - Rebecca Alexander

There’s no greater unifier than the solid beat of a beautiful song. We gathered with members of the USH Community, people living with all 3 types of Usher syndrome, and learned to dance! We can’t think of a better way to celebrate Usher Syndrome Awareness Day, than to share this story of joy, life and community spirit.
