In Memory of Claire Cookson

My sister Claire sadly passed away on Sunday 8th April 2018. She had several rare and complex medical syndromes. But Neurofibromatosis was the condition which gave her the most problems. It badly affected her quality of life and also contributed hugely to her early death. Claire bravely bore this medical condition with fortitude, wonderfully supported and cared for by her husband Gordon. 

As yet, there is no known prevention or cure for Neurofibromatosis, but  the Children's Tumour Foundation  drives research, expands knowledge and advances care for the NF community  in the US 

To  honour  my sister Claire,  I invite her US friends and family to contribute to the Children's Tumour Foundation. During her life, Claire worked as a Children's librarian  so  she would be  delighted that  children are being supported in this way.
