Living with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP)

Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a rare genetic disease that impacts neuronal firing capabilities, resulting in a disruption in walking gaits, digestion, cognition, and lifestyles.

While every individual experiences different symptoms, with some severe and others less so, Jason Jones is mostly affected in the lower limbs. This means his walking, posture, balance, strength, and flexibility are all greatly impacted. Because of this, he spends a good portion of his daily life in a wheelchair or using a walking cane.

In this interview, get an insight into what it's like living with HSP, including the struggles, the triumphs, and his daily schedule.
