  Cheryl Hooge

  Cheryl is proud to co-direct the FSHD BC Chapter. Her daughter was diagnosed with a spontaneous case of FSHD at the age of 16, and this experience sparked Cheryl’s dedication to learning as much as possible about the disease. She stays informed by reading literature and connecting with others affected by FSHD to share insights and support.

  Cheryl believes the FSHD community is an invaluable resource for patients, families, and caregivers, and her passion for building connections led her to help strengthen the local FSHD community in British Columbia. As treatments are being developed, Cheryl is focused on ensuring access to clinical trial sites, hoping to bring one to the area in the future. She is committed to supporting those affected by FSHD and continuing to grow the community.
