Written by: Sylvia from Arcadia, FL USA. I'm 16 years old, and I have an autoimmune disease called Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome (APS). I was diagnosed with it after my dad suffered his first DVT. They tested him for it because there wasn't a reason why an active young man such as my father should develop a blood clot. After his problems started getting worse, we decided that my brother and I should get tested as well. The doctor didn't want to test us as he said the chance of us having it was very low. My brother came back negative but I tested positive.

Written by: Joanne DiMaggio For years, country singer/song writer Mark Hackley performed his songs without a glitch. That all changed in June 2006. What began innocently enough as a routine performance of a private concert in northern Virginia soon turned into a life-threatening event that would change Mark's life forever.
