Dear All
Please don't feel any obligation but if you have a moment please consider signing the below e-petition for Government funding for research into FOP.
FOP turns otherwise healthy people into human statues - a healthy mind locked inside a frozen body. One of the rarest genetic conditions, affecting roughly one in two million, there is very little commercial interest in a cure.
My lovely younger cousin has this condition and it would mean a lot to my family if we could get a bit of momentum behind this petition.

Thanks for looking
