2016 Young Adults Head to Orlando for National Meeting

Hemophilia of South Carolina is proud to have awarded the Joe Caronna National Meeting Educational Memorial Scholarships to TWO young adults of the Chapter. The recipients will be attending the 68th Annual Meeting of the National Hemophilia Foundation. The Chapter established this new educational scholarship in memorial of Joe Caronna, Founder and President of Inalex Communication. Sadly, Joe passed away last year. HSC was excited to award both Connor and Clayton with this national education opportunity.

“The hardest thing for me so far has been to transition from my parents handling everything with my hemophilia to me having to try and handle it myself. When I accomplish this goal, I would like to help with a transition program for young adults in our community. With help from other young adults in our community, we could show others how to better transition from things like college, work, relationships, marriage and children”. ~ Clayton Baird

“The most important thing I have learned while living with a bleeding disorder is you need a good support system. People need each other anyway, but having a chronic illness like this truly requires others assistance and input. I am thankful for all the people and resources that have helped my family and me through the years. I believe wholeheartedly in the mission and purpose of Hemophilia of South Carolina for this main reason; this organization aids folk like me living with the excessive bleeding, swelling, joint pain and unimaginable uncertainty of when something tragic could happen. No man or woman is an island in the world of bleeding disorders”. ~ Connor Graham
