Run/Walking because of Gabe
On March 28, 2008, my son Gabriel died by suicide. It wasn't until after his death that I learned that 33 percent of NF patients experience psychiatric distress and that the suicide rate for NF patients is significantly higher than for the general population. I'll never know what role, if any, NF played in Gabe's death. Nonetheless, I'm run/walking to raise awareness so that other families might be alerted to these possibilities. CTF was there for me, providing encouragement and information throughout Gabriel's life. Now it's my turn to be there for CTF.

Below is a video from the Children’s Tumor Foundation that demonstrates how your support benefits nearly 2 million people worldwide that are affected by Neurofibromatosis. I hope you’ll please take a few minutes to watch the video and perhaps be as motivated as we are to support The Children’s Tumor Foundation.
