User:NFAA

The Neurofibromatosis Association of Australia Inc. (NFAA) was formed in 1985 to support individuals and families affected by neurofibromatosis (NF), which is a genetic disorder. NF has 3 types, and can be inherited, or can occur spontaneously through mutation before birth. Its symptoms range from very mild to severe, and can cause tumours inside and outside the body, deafness, blindness, loss of limbs, scoliosis, learning difficulties, and other problems. The NFAA provides support, information, raises awareness, and promotes research. Contact the NFAA at info@nfaa.org.au or visit www.nfaa.org.au for more information.
