Valley Fever Survivor presents Valley Fever Voices, our video series for survivors to share their stories of struggles, losses, and triumphs when dealing with this disease. The long-form interview format allows them to provide a more complete picture of what they experienced. If you or a family member have VF, it is comforting to know what others have been through and that victories are possible. You are not alone.
It is fitting that Jerry Galang is our first interview in the Valley Fever Voices series since he was also the first person to sign in with a questionnaire at Valley Fever Survivor in 2002.

Valley Fever Epidemic is the first and only complete and up-to-date book ever written on the airborne disease caused by the Southwest’s naturally occurring biohazard. This book offers everything you need to know before or after going to these endemic areas and what to do if you contract this incurable, debilitating and deadly disease. Valley Fever (coccidioidomycosis) affects everyone from the unborn child to the great grandparent and even your pets. Regardless of how healthy anyone is prior to their Valley Fever infection, anyone who breathes is at risk. See our video about Valley Fever Epidemic here.
