Hey! My sister has been diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis out of no where and we are simply stunned and lost in all the chaos created around us by the doctors. I want to know what causes Neurofibromatosis and how it develops in a human. I just want the people around me to be aware and I would like to know myself what actually brought this upon my sister. Can someone help me?
