Danita currently calls Madison, Alabama, home. She and her husband raise four exceptional children, one of which lives with hereditary angioedema — Ladybug.

Our goal is to ensure that everyone has access to disease-specific information that is both trustworthy and easy to understand. You can read more about our editorial policy here.
