Episode 1 - Ezra Talks to Idan - Hyper IgM Podcast - Patient Voices

In the debut episode, Ezra sits down with 11-year-old Idan Zablocki from New York. Idan, diagnosed with X-linked Hyper IgM Syndrome, also known as CD40 Ligand Deficiency, at just 8 months old, faced a life-threatening battle with a rare pneumonia called Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia. This fungal infection of the lungs specifically targets individuals with compromised immune systems. Idan underwent two hematopoietic stem cell transplants before the age of 4 and is currently considered cured of his immunodeficiency and Hyper IgM. Residing in NYC with his parents and younger sister, Idan enjoys school, reading, chess, and exploring the outdoors.
