      • Close Neurofibromatosis

        I am a 40 year old married female with 4 children. I have nfi and have many tumors. Though I am considered mild, I still cannot wear long sleeves because my arms are covered in them. I feel alone since I live in a community where everyone is perfect. I have had many surgeries including a large one last year.I also have a lot of pain assoc. with it. I am a writer, musician. I am always bubbly in front of people to hide my pain. I feel as if I am the only person who does not have perfect skin.
