NF causes tumo rs to grow on nerves throughout the body and can lead to blindness\, bon e abnormalities\, cancer\, deafness\, disfigurement\, learning disabilit ies\, and excruciating and disabling pain. NF is under-recognized and un derdiagnosed yet affects more people than cystic fibrosis\, Duchenne mus cular dystrophy and Huntington&rsquo\;s disease combined. The Children&r squo\;s Tumor Foundation funds critical research to find treatments for NF. In addition to benefiting those who live with neurofibromatosis\, th is research is shedding new light on several forms of cancer\, brain tum ors\, bone abnormalities and learning disabilities\, ultimately benefiti ng the broader community.
