Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim June 10, 2025, as FSGS Awareness Day in the State of New York

AI Summary

This resolution seeks to memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim June 10, 2025, as FSGS Awareness Day in New York State, highlighting the significant impact of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a rare kidney disease that causes kidney scarring. The resolution emphasizes that FSGS affects approximately one in seven American adults, with about 50 percent of patients requiring dialysis or kidney transplant within 5-10 years of diagnosis, and disproportionately impacts minority populations, especially African Americans. The document underscores the disease's complexity, noting it can be diagnosed at any age but is most common in adults over 45, and creates substantial healthcare costs estimated at $2 billion annually. The resolution aims to raise awareness about FSGS, provide support to patients and families, and promote efforts for better diagnosis and potential treatments, while also recognizing the ongoing research and clinical trials that offer hope for improved management of this challenging kidney condition.
