Caring Matters Now Coffee and Cake Morning · 13 June 2014

Caring Matters Now is the only UK charity supporting children and adults affected by Congenital Melanocytic Naevi (CMN) - a genetic condition, consisting of dark brown hairy birthmarks covering up to 80% of the body. The condition has many expressions, some of which can lead to medical complexities

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Our daughter Eva has the rare condition Congenital Melanocytic Naevus. Research has been ongoing for a number of years and last year, the gene which causes CMN was discovered which was wonderful news and work towards finding a treatment could begin.

The research has now reached an exciting phase as Dr Kinsler is close to finding treatments and it is only finance which holds up her progress in this painstaking work. Therefore, we are all highly motivated to raise more funds in 2014-2015 financial year. Unlike Eva, some with CMN suffer from neurological complications and the devastating, fatal, malignant melinoma so we are really working hard to give them all a chance to benefit from these latest developments sooner rather than later.

Thank you
