In 2007, there was a shortage of information regarding Cold Agglutinin Disease and a significant need to educate and support patients with this rare blood disorder. The founder, a CAD patient herself, with the aid of two others she had met through the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD), formed coldagglutinindisease.org.
The goal was to serve as a hub of information, support and encouragement for patients and caregivers globally.   
The facebook.com group, CADdy CHATTER, an outgrowth of the website, was created in 2009.  It now has a worldwide membership of over 1000 very caring CAD patients and caregivers who can directly communicate with each other regarding all aspects of CAD.


CADdy Chatter on Facebook.com is our closed group exclusively for CAD Patients and Family, where you can directly interact with 1000+ other "CADdy's" from around the world.
