Is a cure possible?

If Your life is touched by MEN1 it's important not to give in to fear. It's a serious condition, but effective treatments are available for many of its manifestations. Medical science is advancing rapidly in this area, driven especially by research in the areas of cancer and genetics. There is good reason to hope for continued advances in MEN1 research and treatment ...and someday a cure.

But first things first. If You or a loved one has MEN1, You'll want to seek out the best treatment available. MEN1 is complex, and in order to find the best available treatments it will help to learn more about MEN1 and better understand what You're up against.

I am not a physician, nor any kind of medical professional. But I've got a loved one with MEN1, and we want to make sure she gets the best care possible. So I want to learn more.

On this website we plan to offer resources for those who want to learn more about MEN1. It is our firm belief that MEN1 patients, their loved ones, and friends, can help overcome the challenges of MEN1 by better understanding the condition, its treatments, and something of the research surrounding it. If knowledge is power, then learning about MEN1 improves our ability to secure the best treatment for the MEN1 patients we care for. And in some way, to learn is to join our efforts -even if only in a fraternal sense- with those involved directly in medical research and treatment, and with families around the world who face the challenge of MEN1. This is no small thing.

With our study, prayers, and if possible, financial support of ongoing research, let's help pave the path to a cure.

Will You join in me in learning about MEN1? In promoting MEN1 education, treatment, and research? In supporting those who are fighting this disorder? And in working -and, yes, praying- for a cure?
