We sincerely thank you for taking time to visit Matthew's Site for Tuberous Sclerosis Awareness. Living with Tuberous Sclerosis is not an easy journey, but I have always heard that anything good in life is never easy.
When he was not pulling up to stand or walk at one year old, the pediatrician ordered a CAT scan. Unbelievably, to everyone's surprise, there were tumors in Matthew's brain. So our journey began and I've placed links below to our points of interest along the way. All Aboard!!
