One of my good friends is president of the Illinois NF Assocation. Both her kids have NF. If you are looking for information I can get her e-mail address for you. She is very interested in getting the word out about the condition. Her kids have some problems associated with the condition. Her daughter has had several surgeries to remove a tumor/growth near in her neck. She can't move her head very well because of these surgeries, but she is otherwise a normal happy high school sophomore. Her son, who is in 7th grade I think, has learning disabilities and some physical problems (tumors) but other than that he is a happy boy. I've known the kids since they were born. My friend has been very active in Illinois NF and just took over as president last year. Let me know if you'd like her e-mail address. She is a wealth of information.
