Chronic diseases affect many peoplebut the latter do not really know them.
This is why associations, like Planeth patients, come to the forefront of patients to help them know their illnessbut also to educate them about a better lifestyle.

“The vocation of the Planeth patients association is to help people suffering from chronic illnesses to better understand their pathology and to better understand how to live with it in the best conditions », explains Annabel Marie, coordinator of the Normandy therapeutic education platform in Orne.
