If you are considering coming to the conference, take a look at what the Kennedys have to say about why they attended last year and are coming back this year!

Over a year and a half ago our grandson Ben was diagnosed with PSC. Although many adults as well as children suffer from diseases of the liver, we had never heard of PSC. For us, that of course has all changed. Like many of you who have been touched by PSC, we have made it our mission to learn as much as possible about this rare disease. We started by searching the Internet, reading everything our daughter, Christine and son-in-law John sent us and by attending our first PSC conference in 2014. We primarily attended the conference to support our family but came away from it with a wealth of knowledge and a feeling of hope that we could help make a difference. What a relief to know that there was something, even we, as grandparents, could do. It may seem small but we are comforted that our voice has joined this effort to find a treatment and eventually a cure. We will be in Dallas in April for the next PSC Conference.
