The Adolfo Suarez Cehegín Cultural Center will host this Saturday, May 30th, at 19:00, the performance of the play children's theater 'Prince enratonado' by La Astracanada Theatre.
The money raised by the sale of tickets will go to research into this disease.
Maria Jose Teruel, Cehegín neighbor and affected by this disease, explained that May is the month in which the Chromo22 Association, consisting of just 20 people in Spain, is carrying out different activities to become visible in society and seek more care, support and more resources for biomedical research and drug therapies.
Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is a genetic disorder that causes a mutation on chromosome 22 which favors the development of benign tumors throughout the central nervous system (brain, spinal cord and neuronal cells in general).
Most affected show the first symptoms during adolescence or around 20 years.
