SEE THE UNSEEN, HEAL WITH LOVE — China’s First PID Family Psychological Support Workshop

This summer in Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, PID Care China organised its first-ever PID Family Psychological Support Workshop, bringing together nearly 40 participants from 16 cities across 10 provinces — people living with primary immunodeficiency (PID) and their families — for a warm and restorative gathering.

For many PID families, daily life revolves around treatments and medical care, often leaving little room for emotional well-being. This workshop offered a safe space for healing and connection. Through activities such as sound bowl therapy, tea meditation, yoga, and open sharing circles, participants learned to reconnect with themselves and each other. What began with quiet introductions soon turned into heartfelt sharing — tears, laughter, and courage to express long-suppressed emotions.

With the support of a domestic biopharmaceutical partner, educational sessions were also held to share updates on immunoglobulin therapies and SCIG, helping families better understand future treatment options. A surprise birthday celebration for two young participants added an extra touch of joy and togetherness.

This meaningful event reminded everyone that, beyond medicine, psychological support and companionship are also powerful forms of healing. PID Care China will continue to organise similar initiatives, ensuring that every patient and family feels seen, supported, and empowered to move forward — with love and hope lighting their journey.
