At one point Dawn from a small town in Alberta couldn't walk to the end of her driveway without being winded. She has now conquered her diagnosis in 2020 with secondary adrenal insufficiency and now walks thousands of kilometres a year.

Dawn's secondary adrenal insufficiency was caused by the removal of a pituitary tumour that was producing ACTH hormone. But her journey started years before SAI with a life full of illness, steroids, autoimmune disorders, asthma and migraines.

She has learned to set boundaries, manage her medication, improve her overall wellness and live a life with SAI.

SAI is not stopping Dawn from living her life and she is ready to conquer any challenge SAI gives her.

We are a family and as a family, we can make a difference.
