It was bound to happen; the ALS ice challenge is an amazing viral phenomenon to create awareness and funds for a very worthy cause! Now a similar type challenge has been started for NF...another progressive neurological disorder that gets very little attention. The full name is NEUROFIBROMATOSIS, which creates as much havoc as its crazy name. Tumor growth is the main manifestation, but it branc...

The Shriner Family have been very supportive in our NF journey. Seth has NF1 which creates tumor growth and other symptoms. The bone deformity is where the Shriner's have come into our life. Seth has Pseudoarthrosis, which means "false joint". He has been unable to achieve bone union in his tibia and they have been helping us correct this. Our family is very thankful for this organization.

great love to all of us with neurofibromatosis from Denmark who also have nf1
Hello, thanks for saying hi!
May I know if there is any medicine being tried in the world to control or cure this disease? Can I hope for a cure?
I have watched many advancements in the treatments and research trials for NF. We can keep praying for a cure. 🙏
I have tumers all over my body in my back hurts really bad
I’m so sorry for the pain you have to endure. NF warriors impress me everyday! 🤗
I'm late to the post here. I too have NF and I'm 62 . To all these beautiful kids be strong and stay positive. God Bless You.
The kids in this video are all doing well. Thank you for your prayers. Much appreciated.
Im Rick i have type 1
Hi Rick, My son has NF also. I hope you are doing well.
Buenas tardes y para Neurofibromatosis no podrían hacer una vacuna o quemar con láser el tumor que ataca los nervios es solo opinión saludos.
I HAVE N,F, 1, AND EATING RIGHT TAKING HERB'S HELP A LOT, AND TALKING ASHWAGANDAHA ( KSM,,66 ) HERB HELPS A SUPER LOT IT CONTROLS MY LIFE my mind my thinking, TRY TAKING IT
I'm 50 so far. NF type 1. I hope yours is mild
My little brother is 9 years old and he has this disease. Do all those who get it have tumors and learning difficulties? I am very worried about him. I think about him all the time. At the same time, I am afraid for my mother.😢
Yes, many people with NF have learning difficulties, however, they learn to manage them and have productive lives. Try not to worry, but that is so sweet of you to care so much. Blessings.
Nf1 is the reason I wish I was never born in the first place
Why i am getting my body burned after i die :(
I am so sorry you feel this way. There is so much good in the world, please stay strong.
I too have nf 1
Welcome. I hope you are doing well. Blessings.
Mí consejo es que vivan una vida normal, no se tengan pena, ni limitados estudien una carrera un oficio y a laborar, nada impide que se realicen como personas y no tomen ningún medicamento. Procuren hacerse cirujía común buen cirujano dermatólogo y aceptence de corazón, amense y para adelante. El amor lo puede todo y la actitud positiva también.
Great advice!
I have nurofibromotosis
If you want to know where I get my IVCs I go to Riodan Clinic the people there are so nice people.
I am now a 13 year old girl who fights NF1 and I'm staying strong! God Bless you all!
Awesome! Love your positive attitude. Blessings!
I was diagnosed with NF 1 at the age of 2 months. None of my family had it so I was the unlucky one. And at age 8 I got a small Tumor by my right optic nerve and it was the scariest day of my life. If you have tumors and don't want to do chemo therapy do IVC treatment. I love and highly recommend it. For all who suffer NF God Bless You.
Blessings to you also.
I have nf to I don't know is 1 or 2 or 3 From phil
Hopefully you have found a knowledgeable doctor to help you. Blessings!
My name is WELLIgTON I'm 37 years old I'm Brazilian and I live in Brazil, I'm also a carrier of neurofibromatosis, I've suffered a lot of prejudice.
Sir pls malayalam tell
Hi! I have a suggestion to liquefy neurofibromatosis lumps. Keep eating papaya fruit everyday, don't stop . Papaya liquefies cancer cells or tumors that is why it is used as meat tenderizer. Cancer cells /tumors don't have mechanism for repair or heal, it is just uncontrolled growth. Papaya don't affect healthy cells. My teacher had 3 breast lumps and they disappeared because she ate papaya for 3 months, she told us in class. If you don't believe me, google papaya cure cancer. I know its not cancer but it is tumor so is uncontrolled growth. They just might liquefy the lumps so they'll disappear. I hope you try, you have nothing to lose , just all the lumps. My goal is to spread this advice to as many people with neurofibromatosis as i can because it saddens me to look at them.
I have nf1 and I also have learning disabilities, cafe latte spots, sensory with my scalp and ears, and my spinal cord sticks out of my back
Thanks for checking in and saying hi. Blessings!
Hello, I am 19 and have nf1. I was diagnosed at the age of 17 with this. I don't have any major symptoms as of now but I have many tumours all over my hand stomach and neck. Handful of them are also on my back. These tumours are not visible to anyone with naked eye but if someone closely looks at the site he can spot it. The largest tumour is 2cm in size and roughly 50 in number.These tumours are under the skin ones. Some of them are painful when pressed but not everyday. I am very tensed to think how my future will look like as no one can predict the rate of growth of these. tumours. My mother also have nf1 but her is very mild she get to know about it at the age of 40. -Can my condition worsen in future? -Is meditation able to slow tumour growth or can cure nf1?
I hope you’re doing well. I’m glad you do not have major symptoms. Look for an NF support group near you. They are very helpful. Blessings.
I was diagnosed at 19years old. I avoided Dr.s all my life up till then. I went into a bad asthma attack so went to hospital for breathing treatment. They always give a lung spray before one. That's when I was diagnosed. Had lung surgery. I'm 46 now, in alot of pain daily, problems see UK nv,ect. Past year I've had 30 from elbow down. Find a cure. Not that it would help but I'm donating my body to science
I have nf1 but I don't have scoliosis I am 27 my eye power is _2 ... but have some tumours on my hand ,back side , and chest but no tumors on my leg .. don't have usse for walking , running, and my bp is too Normal and hearing good .. I have a question nf 1 can causes blindness paralysis and causes cancer
Hello from Romania. I have NF1 too since I was born. It's very hard to try to stay strong and go on but that's life. But I want you to ask you, does someone with NF1 have healthy children? That didn't got it? I know the riscs. They are 50%-50% something like a russin roulette.
This is so sad….I have NF1 but it’s very mild and I don’t suffer many major symptoms😢 my heart goes out to you all going though hash and life threatening symptoms💗
I have NF1 also I appear to have it fairly mild right now but it is terrifying that we have a shorter life expectancy it makes me so sad I HATE NF1
I have mild NF1 too, but I don't think it'll impact our life expectancy as much as compared to someone with a stronger case of it ):
Treatment please??
There is none.
It runs in our family. My sister has it through spontaneous gene mutation, and my husband has it as well as one of my son's. My husband brother has it his mother, aunt, uncle's cousins and more so my son really doesn't feel different yet. I don't think he will. We knew that at least one would be born with it. He had cafe au lait spots at birth. The pediatrician came in to deliver the bad news and was surprised I already knew. Any Whoo he's living his life to the fullest he can. He's 23 and his so far looks to be minor where as my sister's is severe.

I too have neurofibromatosis
I am 30 , I have NF1 and my dad and his dad had it , it sucks more socially
I have NF and have had 2 surgeries because of it.
No cure? It's hereditary? So as long as you aren't passing it on. No more kids would be born with it?
If one of your parents have NF, it's 50% chance the offspring will get it.
Genetic mutations :(
I have nf 1 found out at 3 1/2 was only meant to live to five now 20

I have NF and i almost failed school because it’s harder for me to learn
Littlemix Dream, Hello, thanks for sharing! I hope you are learning some strategies to help you learn. 😊
I’m talking to a woman with NF1 and while we share photos, it seems like she doesn’t want to meet until we have some bond over the phone. She’s in her 30’s. I like her and wish she wouldn’t hide.
I hope she starts feeling more confident.
