Angel Lauren Wall, 24. Raising awareness by sharing my journey with NF2. All opinions are my own.

March is Brain Tumour Awareness Month
We are sharing slides from our friends at @NF2pointofview who raise awareness about NF2.
Brain tumours are very common in NF2. Most people with NF2 will be diagnosed with a brain tumour at some point.
Support brain tumour research

Thank you for following 🙏 800+

Raising awareness of rare conditions is very close to my heart. That naturally became an advocacy mission also. You learn pretty quickly that you have to take on that mantle for your own family but I truly believe in community #LeaveNoOneBehind

Our conference and information day lineup. This year we have added a breakout session to allow families, researchers and support organisations to interact and chat about how we can all work together to promote change and awareness for #PLWRD

1) As per @rtenews, Tusla is investigating allegations of abuse of children by a school principal following concerns by raised by staff. Yet parents advise when they raise similar concerns about abuse, Tusla have told them they have no remit in allegations against teachers.

[raising_rareness (Lyndsey Walsh) @raisingrareness]

This is difficult to process. All staff at the school signed the complaint, serious complaints!

Autistic children, those with ID, in fact any child should not be exposed to this treatment.

Every single person that talks about NF2 helps to raise awareness. Your story raises awareness & helps others on their journey too.
If we don't talk about NF2 and raise awareness no-one will listen to us, nothing will change.

For so long we wanted an AAC system that was going to enable Arabella to communicate her needs, requests, wants etc. To us as her family this was paramount, as was her being able to access a system that could enable her to tell us if she is hurt, sick, her feelings etc.

Just over a month to go. Tickets still available on eventbrite. Great line up of speakers including rare disease patients, carers, advocates and researchers https://t.co/q5WMaKUeh7

This is my friend Reggie Bibbs. Reggie is the kindest and most loving person I have ever met. His face is disfigured from a rare genetic condition called ‘Neurofibromatosis.’

After many years of never leaving his bedroom, out of shame and embarrassment, Reggie finally summoned enough courage to face his fears and raise awareness of this disorder.

He has incurred tremendous challenges over the past years, including the loss of his mother and the foreclosure of their family home. Despite these hardships, Reggie has maintained an extraordinary spirit and has always believed that something better was coming.

My humble request is for you to open your heart and consider supporting Reggie in raising funds through a GoFundMe account. These funds would be to cover his monthly rent, utilities, and essential expenses for the next five years.

Any contribution, no matter how small, will make such a meaningful difference in Reggie's life and help him reach his $133,000.00 goal.. Thank you so much.

We are proud to support the #GetRareAware campaign.

Waiting 2 years + for routine genetic apps & knowing genetic test results have come back with a genetic condition is detrimental to the well-being & care of #PLWRD & their families.
