Product Description
A chronicle of the life experiences of adults with neurofibromatosis 1, a neurological genetic condition for many years misdiagnosed as "The Elephant Man's Disease."

Ablon offers suggestions for families, support systems, and health care providers to enhance coping skills and self image of the affected persons.
