TACK!!! Och som vanligt rinner tårarna jag blir så otroligt rörd och väldigt, väldigt glad och stolt över det här.

Outstanding International Leadership Award
Marie Hallbert
Marie’s son Hugo Fahlberg, who is now a young teenager, was diagnosed with FOP at age 2. When Hugo was diagnosed, Marie noted that there were no resources about FOP in their home country of Sweden, and certainly no Swedish language information. Marie set about to change that. She is the founder of “FOP Sverige”, a group which provides support and information to Swedish and other Scandinavian people with FOP and their families. Through FOP Sverige, Marie has organized 3 FOP conferences in Sweden over the years, and she has worked to ensure that important information about FOP is available in Swedish – including parts of the FOP Treatment Guidelines. Marie has also been interviewed about FOP numerous times by Swedish news media, and has given speeches about FOP in Swedish to medical professionals. More recently, Marie organized the FOP “Collection Project” in which cans for donations by the public are placed in stores and other public places. Marie has also designed and organized FOP Sverige’s new website, and has been writing a regular Swedish language blog on the site about her family’s life with FOP and important news concerning FOP. Throughout this time, Marie has been a source of help, strength and support for families dealing with FOP, especially in cases of new diagnoses (both in Scandinavia and elsewhere). One mother of a recently diagnosed child in Sweden calls Marie the “FOP Angel”. FOP Sverige Milstolpar 2004-2012
