...It is not only a medical journey, VHL has logistical and emotional impacts on the lives of both the patients and everyone around them. Disability, job loss, broken marriages, worries about health insurance and medical expenses, difficult family planning decisions. Debilitating disappointment as talented young people realize the academic, athletic and career dreams they have worked hard for have to be curtailed or given up. Depression, anxiety, panic attacks are inevitable on the VHL patient journey and often are as devastating as the manifestations and surgeries themselves. *
 
Started by me, a patient, to fill a gap in 2016, VHL Canada has a very small group of volunteers that contributes hundreds of hours annually. Your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate a lot or a little.

Thank you,
Henry Seo
