The genetic disease VHL knows no racial, geographic or age distinctions. It impacts people equally from all over the world. Brooke Elizabeth McLaurin, Miss North Carolina of 2005, has VHL and established VHL and Brain Tumor Awareness as her platform. The rapper and poet Keith Richards has VHL and includes it in his songs and poetry.
VHL effects roughly 1 in 30,000, causing cysts and tumors in the body similar to cancer. It is of special interest to researchers because its study may lead to more general understanding of the disease.
The VHL Family Alliance was started in 1993 to help patients and researchers learn more about this condition.(more)
