this is an amazingly fantastic initiative.
any thing that further enhances the larger public awareness of this condition has to be good.
as well as the massive advances in treatment of the condition being researched and publicised i think that far greater emphasis is also needed to publicise the difficulties faced in living with KC on a daily basis from the KC sufferers point of view
