Nurse’s Rare Illness to Recovery
Description
A nurse’s life flipped overnight when a cholesterol drug triggered a rare autoimmune muscle disease—so rare it’s one in a million. Struggling to lift a milk carton, he ended up in a wheelchair, mistaking symptoms for COVID until doctors uncovered the drug culprit. After three months of grueling rehab at Clontarf Hospital—the only public rehab center in its region—he clawed back his strength through relentless therapy. Now back at work and preparing for his final infusion, his story is a powerful reminder of how dedicated rehabilitation can turn survival into thriving.
