“Can't wait to read this. Abbey, you are an inspiration. There is still a long way to go but the Orphan Drug Act remains foundational to all our work. THANK YOU.”

- Wendy White

“Abbey,
As always you amaze me. Too bad we could not be part of one of the debates. We could show that opposing views can be respectful and learn from each other.”

- Ken Mehrling

“This is wonderful news Abby. Congratulations! Your work and your life have been such an inspiration to me and my Board colleagues at The Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation. I learned so much from you and NORD in the mid-90's in successfully bringing to market 4 different NDAs in rare cancers. It is such an honor to continue to advocate with you!”

-Michael W. Young

“Abbey, congratulations on your many accomplishments for NORD and  all patients but especially those without an advocate until you came along.  I look forward to reading your book and recommending it to young people who need you as a role model.  Best wishes, Ray Woosley”

-Raymond L. Woosley, MD, Ph.D.
