Description

On today's episode of DiMattia’s Food Fight, we’re going beyond food and into something even bigger — the fight for life. My guest’s child is living with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT), a rare genetic condition that can cause arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) in the body. These are abnormal connections between arteries and veins that can lead to serious complications.

We’ll talk about what HHT is, how it affects families, and most importantly, how awareness can save lives. Early diagnosis and treatment are key — and so is sharing stories like this one.

This is a conversation about strength, resilience, and the power of community. Don’t miss it.
