Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a rare disease that affects each person differently — and for many, it can take years to receive a diagnosis. Vanessa Hein shares her decade-long journey to finding answers, while artist Emma Lyons explains how she transformed that experience into powerful artwork through the Colors of SM program. Together, they highlight resilience, advocacy, and the importance of awareness. Learn more about the program at www.colorsofsm.com.
