Getting older

Sharing experiences is a great way to connect with other people with bleeding disorders. People going through the same thing as you can be very reassuring.

Sometimes having a bleeding disorder like haemophilia or VWD can leave you feeling a bit alone, particularly if you don’t know anyone else who has the same condition.

Our community members share their experiences:

  • living with a bleeding disorder as they get older
  • what they would like out of life  
  • what they have learned and tips and strategies that have worked for them.
Neill shares his experience growing up with haemophilia in the 1950s and 60s, changing treatments, building a career, travelling, and living a full life
