Connective Issues Spring 2016

VICTORY IS...

CREATING CONNECTIONS

Supporting you on your journey with Marfan syndrome or a related disorder is central to all that we do at The Marfan Foundation. Do you need med- ical information? Do you need to find a doctor? Do you need to talk with someone who can relate? Do you need a shoulder to cry on? Our Walks for Victory are a great place for you to create connections to other people with the same diagnosis in your area and to the local medical community. And if there isn’t a walk near you, you can participate in the Conference Walk for Victory this summer (details on page 14). Creating connections provides support and comfort. Creating connections adds to your quality of life. Just check out the happy faces at our 2016 Walks for Victory on this page.
