We often see stories of the underdog triumphing over giants on the big screen, where justice prevails. In the real world, can passion alone lead to victory? Today's heroine, #UnsungHero, didn't make groundbreaking discoveries or inventions. What she had was an unwavering dedication to truth and a strong foundation in knowledge and science. #ScienceAndTruth 📚💡
Around 10,000 people, aged between 65-70 today, have unusually short limbs, resembling seal flippers, due to a medication's side effect - a condition known as #PhocomeliaAwareness. This devastating drug was once thought by expecting mothers to be a miracle cure for morning sickness. Little did they know, a single untested pill would forever change the fate of their unborn child... 🌍💊
Thankfully, one woman stood against it all, preventing the rise of more victims. It's daunting to think about how many more families might have faced this tragedy without her. Dive into the remarkable story of this extraordinary woman and how she safeguarded generations. #ProtectingGenerations ❤️🙏
