The AMAZING Way Bob Saget Helped A 9-Year-Old Girl With Scleroderma Before His Death

Bob Saget was incredible. Every tribute that has been released since his death continues to make that more clear, especially this story.

As we’ve reported, one of Bob’s life missions was to help find a cure for a rare disease called scleroderma, an autoimmune disorder that involves the hardening of the skin and connective tissue.

His sister Gay suffered from the illness before her death in 1996 when she was just 47. Having already worked with The Scleroderma Foundation before this tragedy, he grew more committed to ensuring no other family would have to suffer similar grief.

For years, he was an advocate for the organization, attending events and helping to raise awareness and funds for their research.
