My name is April. I am 34 and live in the San Antonio, Texas area. I was born with Niemann Pick Type B (ASMD). I was diagnosed at Loma Linda in California when I was 2 while in the hospital with Mono. I had multiple surgeries growing up. My tonsils, appendix and gallbladder were all removed. I also had bone marrow aspirations. In 1998 I was also diagnosed with Chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopinia purpera (ITP). The diseases both complicate each other. February 2, 2015 I welcomed my son Nicholas. I still live a somewhat "normal" life with just a few extra hiccups along the way.
