Image: Friends Evelyn Grimberg (left) and Minette van der Ven (right) share a positive outlook on living with the rare bleeding disorder Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia. Together, they are active in raising awareness of bleeding disorders in general, and in particular the specific issues faced by women who are haemophilia carriers or have been diagnosed with a bleeding disorder.
Minette and Evelyn, with their parents’ support, were able to enjoy being active during childhood. Today, their awareness raising activities involve physical challenges. Together, they have completed several long-distance bike rides, including a 15-day trip with a team of other cyclists with bleeding disorders from the Netherlands (their home country) to a meeting of the European Haemophilia Consortium in Norway.
Image: The friends agree that being physically active is beneficial to their general and health and wellbeing, but are aware of the importance of being realistic about their goals and having the support and advice of their healthcare team.
Image: Minette (left) and Evelyn (right) believe that more needs to be done to understand the experiences and impact of bleeding disorders on women who are either carriers or have a diagnosis. Both are involved in the Dutch Association of Haemophilia Patients.
