We asked parents what PRF has meant to them, and were overwhelmed by their responses!

This is why we do what we do.

“When we first found out that Meghan had Progeria (at age 2), the average life expectancy was 13 years old… we thought 13 years was a long way away, and it came so fast! And now she’s 19, she’s healthy, she’s strong, she puts her mind to what she wants to accomplish in her life and she just goes for it.

When we found The Progeria Research Foundation, I had an extreme moment of relief, comforted by the fact that there was someone in our corner working on this problem. They approach solving the problem with such excellence that I know together we WILL find the cure!”

 “After visiting Mumbai for Prachi’s check-up initially, we first learned about Progeria, and we were worried. But that timely call from PRF helped us to be at peace. Once we visited Boston (for Prachi’s clinical trial), we realized the phenomenal work done by PRF, who has over the years become a strong support system for us. I am thankful to them and hope to see them fulfill all of Prachi’s dreams.”

“When the doctors diagnosed Sammy with Progeria, we knew nothing about this disease, so we searched online, and we found PRF. We met Audrey Gordon in 2000, along with Leslie, Scott, and Sam, and we became fast friends. In 2006, they invited Sammy for Progeria clinical testing, followed by the first Progeria clinical trial. It was like a door, full of hope, was opening for us…
PRF did and is doing exceptional things. We knew from the start that they put their heart and soul into helping all the teens and children with this disease. We immediately gained a great family.
For us, PRF is such a lifeline… PRF gives us great hope. When we come to Boston, we feel safe, we have no fear for the clinical trials, nor for the new drugs… because we know that they are working also with their own heart, and this is very important to us!
-Amerigo and Laura, Sammy’s dad and mom

 “We learned Aaditya had Progeria in 2014. The Progeria Research Foundation was a blessing coming into our life. With their help, we’ve been able to successfully provide our child with medical assistance that we never would have known about. Over the past few years, PRF’s support has helped him physically, as well as emotionally. We are very thankful to them. My son, Aaditya keeps talking about his trip and carries good memories from the USA.”
