Our family went to Hershey Park. My husband wore his EndNF t-shirt. A family approached us in the park saying they loved his shirt. The mom said both herself and her son have NF and thanked my husband for spreading awareness.

HONORABLE MENTIONS
(in no particular order)
My husband and 2 of our 3 children have NF 1. He runs the Tough Mudder each year and now my children run the Mighty Mudder.
They are examples of being strong and never letting a diagnosis stop you from living life.
