Story
In Memory of Claire Cookson
My sister Claire sadly passed away on Sunday 8th April 2018. She had several rare and complex medical syndromes. But Neurofibromatosis was the condition which gave her the most problems. It badly affected her quality of life and also contributed hugely to her early death. Claire bravely bore this medical condition with fortitude, wonderfully supported and cared for by her husband Gordon.
As yet, there is no known prevention or cure for Neurofibromatosis, but the Neuro Foundation provides first class information, support and advice for sufferers of this disease. It also facilitates and promotes innovative research and acts as an advocate for those with NF.
To honour my sister Claire, I invite her friends and family to contribute to the Neuro Foundation, which provides crucial support and empowerment for all those affected by Neurofibromatosis in the UK.
