I have to admit to being surprised at how much brighter the future looks since I posted on the VHL online forum and cannot express how grateful I am for the replies I have received.

Hope is like a road in the country; there wasn’t ever a road, but when many people walk on it, the way becomes clear.

Let’s Cure VHL in this Decade!

 

Improve Diagnosis: Let’s find all those people with VHL who are struggling to find a diagnosis for all their mysterious symptoms.

 

Improve Treatment: Let’s find improvements in imaging and surgical techniques that will make it easier to treat individual tumors and keep people healthy and productive. Even better, let’s find ways of halting, shrinking, and preventing tumors without surgery!

 

Improve Quality of Life: By supporting one another, by keeping our spirits up, by focusing on the positive and creating real progress, we can live happier lifes.
