In Honor Of You

Running for Answers was founded by a desmoid tumor patient FOR desmoid tumor patients. The race continues in honor of YOU.

In an effort to shine the light on the patient experience and the impact of this rare disease, we invite all patients to submit a photo to us, along with the information below.

Your words and photo will be displayed on our In Honor Of section of the RFA website, alongside other patients in the community. We're excited to feature your words and we thank you for sharing with us!

Please read the information below thoroughly and send the following 3 items below to lynne@dtrf.org.
