After a decade of volunteering for other organizations and learning about the bleeding disorder community from many aspects, Michael Birmingham created the non-profit organization The Bleeding Edge, which focuses on male adults with hemophilia. It provides experiences and educational content that is unique in the community. In that educational content, Michael saw the need for courses on how to prepare for retirement, something that until recently people with hemophilia were told they didn’t need to worry about, as they didn’t really have a long-term future. Medical advances have now given longer life spans, and the future is now something critical to prepare for in this community. The knowledge and information in Continuing the Journey applies to everyone.
