“I learned that life is precious.”

Meet Jenna. She’s been part of the PatientsLikeMe Team since back in 2012 when she first started as an intern. And for Jenna, working at PatientsLikeMe is personal. Her father was diagnosed with ALS when she was just eight years old, and so, being part of PatientsLikeMe is especially meaningful for her.

For ALS Awareness Month this year, Jenna volunteered to talk on camera about how the condition impacted her childhood; sharing how a family banded together to care for a father, husband and friend.

“I learned that life is precious,” she says. “And I learned at an early age that it’s important to do what you love and do something that makes a difference.”
