    Thank you guys for everything you do. I flew in a few years ago as the doctors I have met with locally over the last 18 years since being diagnosed, weren’t familiar with NF. You guys are making huge strides and I know all of your patients are SO very thankful for all that you do.

    Nf 1 is such a cruel disease. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Because there is no part of your body unaffected, it is like living with a time bomb balanced on a Buckaroo! Horrible, painful, ugly and unpredictable. Wish I lived near Johns Hopkins

      @Bobby Dennis while it is usually determined to be genetic but there are cases where neither parents have it. From what I understand it isn’t recessive like being a redhead. If you get it genetically it has to come from either your mum or dad.

    • @AboutthatMommyLife
      @AboutthatMommyLife 2 роки тому +1

      It’s not always genetic. Some cases are caused by a gene mutation. If a person has NF they have a 50/50 chance of passing it on to their child

      You can't get it through a blood transfusion, that is impossible. It is a genetic disorder, hence you must be born with it.
