Rachel Mindrup's "Many Faces of NF" Featured on Patientworthy

Thursday, January 3, 2019

When KHN Alumni Resident Artist (2017) Rachel Mindrup's son Henry was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis, or NF, she was among the vast majority of people who had not ever heard of the disorder.  NF is, more specifically, a "group of genetic disorders that cause tumors to form throughout the body." Rachel started a project to increase awareness, and now has painted over 150 portraits of people with NF. Rachel's project, "Many Faces of NF," was recently highlighted and featured on Patientworthy.  For more information on this project and to read Rachel and Henry's story, see the article below.
