Walk for VHL

March  2003      Download a printable copy of this issue 

 

My sister was recently diagnosed with VHL, and DNA testing revealed that my mother has it too. Even though I do not have VHL, it still affects me very much. It is such an un-heard-of disease, yet many people have it and do not even know that they do. I would like to do something to raise awareness of VHL and to raise money to benefit the VHLFA. One of the only ways to ease the struggles of such a disease is to let others know about it so they can help. I will be organizing a walk-a-thon this year to benefit VHLFA. -- Ariel R., age 15, New Jersey
