Review for Neurofibromatosis Midwest, St. Charles, IL, USA
My grandson was diagnosed with NF1 last year. I, of course, did all the things that the doctors tell you not to do and researched it myself. Initially, I was distraught by viewing the images of people who have the disease. However, one site I came across was NF Midwest which calmly explained the disease and gave me a feeling that there was a great deal of hope in treating and possibly eliminating this disease. I have participated in the Great Step NF Walks and met other people going through the same experience. I have attended other NF Midwest events. I know NF Midwest have seminars where recent developments and treatment of NF are discussed as well as related sibling issues. I plan to attend one these seminars in early November. However, the best thing I like about NF Midwest is that it gives support and information to my daughter and son-in-law. They are very enthusiastic about their support for NF Midwest and it helps them with the care of my grandson. John Wasilewski
