BC Place lights up for Ehlers-Danlos Awareness
May 31st, 2020
BC Place will light up black and white in support of Ehlers-Danlos Awareness Month on Sunday, May 31st.
The Ehlers-Danlos syndromes are a group of connective tissue disorders that can be inherited and are varied both in how they affect the body and in their genetic causes. They are generally characterized by joint hypermobility (joints that stretch further than normal), skin hyperextensibility (skin that can be stretched further than normal), and tissue fragility.
Since 2006, Ehlers-Danlos Awareness Month has promoted awareness, education, outreach, and fundraising for the Ehlers-Danlos syndromes and related disorders.
