Client: Cure FD (Nonprofit Supporting Familial Dysautonomia)
Project: Article outlining positive treatment results on children with a rare genetic disease, and the need for additional donations.
Article Excerpt:
As debilitating as Familial Dysautonomia (FD) is, great strides are currently being made towards improvement in quality of life for many children with the disease. Research being conducted by Dr. Berish Rubin at Fordham University on four treatments (tocotrienols, EGCG, low-tyramine diets and low-protein diets) has shown measurable results in many kids.
….
Though some of the results are truly amazing, not every child with FD benefits from the treatments discovered thus far, so it is important to continue the search for new therapies. Individuals with FD each have a unique genetic expression of FD, so they have widely varied responses to treatments. This is why it is so imperative that a variety of treatment options be available. With your donation, Dr. Rubin can continue his discovery of novel, life-changing therapeutics and improve the quality of life for children with FD.
