    • About Me

      I am 29 years old and was diagnosed with NF1 when I was about 8 or 9 months old. I am at least 5th generation on my mom\'s side to have NF1 I have a more severe form of NF1. I had an optic glioma which contributed to the complete loss of vision in my left eye, and cause some cranial facial deformities to the left side of my face as well. this is why i try not to show the left side of my face in photos
