💚 Meet John Fisher — One of Our Monthly Heroes Living with Mito

More than 40 years ago, John Fisher was diagnosed with mitochondrial myopathy, specifically Chronic Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia (CPEO), a rare eye muscle disorder. For John, giving monthly provides a sense of comfort and purpose that MitoCanada is advocating for Canadians living with mitochondrial disease.

“Since becoming aware of MitoCanada, I’ve come to appreciate the organization’s educational and advocacy efforts. But more importantly, the sense of community being built. It is the passion of people like MitoCanada CEO/President, Kate Murray, and others promoting and advocating for the needs of the mito community, that inspired me to support MitoCanada through my monthly donations. As a dreamer and someone who believes in the human spirit’s ability to overcome adversity, I truly believe MitoCanada can make life better for everyone in the mito community.”
