When Steven “Steve” Copher, a young husband and father in San Diego, CA, was diagnosed with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (Alpha-1) at just 36 years old, he was told that he had just four to five years to live. His wife, Amanda, refused to let that be the end of their story. Through education, persistence, and community, find out how the Copher family managed daily life, including homeschooling their two twin boys, while navigating Steve’s diagnosis and, ultimately, his life-saving lung transplant.

According to a 2021 study published in the peer-reviewed journal Sage Open Chronic Disease, although only about 5% of those with Alpha-1 may require a lung transplant at some point in their lives, Alpha-1 is the fourth most common indication for lung transplantation worldwide, following non-Alpha-1 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and cystic fibrosis.

Happy National Pet Day! Today we’re celebrating the furry (and not-so-furry) friends who make every day a little brighter. For those of us working remote or hybrid positions, our pets aren’t just part of our lives — they’re part of our workdays, too! They sit beside us through calls with Alphas, keep us company during long stretches of emails, and remind us to take much-needed breaks. Here are some of the awesome pets who keep our AlphaNet Coordinators and staff company as we serve Alphas across the country!
