Mony B. was diagnosed with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH), otherwise known as Pseudo-Tumor Cerebri. This condition effects only 1 out of 100,000.

​

She is now committed to building a community of "gems" who also experience rare diseases, to help them find strength in the struggle, power in their pain, and overcome the fear, anxiety, uncertainty, and hopelessness in order to use their condition as a force for good. 

​

Gems are formed through fire, heat, and pressure, and these challenging conditions are precisely what makes them so rare and valuable.
