NF is a neurogenetic condition that affects almost 25,000 people in the UK alone but yet it is a condition none of us seem to know. Our eldest daughter Tillie was born with NF1 and is as yet relatively unaffected by one of the many symptoms that this condition can cause.</span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">&nbsp;</span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Neuro Foundation&nbsp;is crucial in helping to support those children and families whose lives are affected by Neurofibromatosis and they do a wonderful job in raisng awareness adn improving lives. Like many charities they are finding it challenging to raise money in these difficult economic times so I would be extremely grateful if you would consider contributing to this wonderful charity by sponsoring me to endure approximately 3.5hrs (bullish!) of pain in April.</span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">&nbsp;</span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; background: white;"><span style="color: black; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">For more information please visit </span><a href="http://www.nfauk.org/"><span style="font-family: Calibri; color: #0000ff; font-size: small;">www.nfauk.org</span></a></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &amp;amp;amp;quot; color: black; font-size: 11pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
