WINNER


This photo is of me, my son Roderick, 4 years old, and my father’s photo in the frame (Miguel, deceased). We all have NF2. I honor my father’s legacy by teaching my son what my father taught me: that our illness is nothing to be ashamed of nor will it limit us from living or achieving our dreams. I make NF visible by raising awareness to educate the community about the adversities we, NF fighters, endure and overcome. I fundraise with hope that my son and future generations have better treatment, and hopefully one day a cure.
