Joan Young has been a teacher, systems analyst, and manager at several companies, including those in the pharmaceutical industry.  However, it wasn’t until her dramatic recovery from ITP that she embarked on her most rewarding career: helping others improve their health.  After an overwhelming response to a small ITP web site she created, she founded the Platelet Disorder Support Association.  Now in its tenth year, the organization reaches thousands of people in more than 130 countries.  Joan lives in Maryland.
