In 2022, Oscar was diagnosed with NF1. He has a Plexiform Neurobibroma tumor on his back. There is currently no cure for this condition. I am participating in Steps2Cure NF to raise awareness and support for those affected by neurofibromatosis (NF), a genetic disorder that causes tumors to form on nerves throughout the body. The money raised will support the mission of NF Northeast, funding patient support programs, advocacy efforts, and cutting edge research, and will provide hope and help to individuals and families impacted by NF. Every step I take brings us closer to better treatments, increased awareness, and a brighter future—thank you for your support!
