I'm asking you to support #ACD 's Holiday Heroes campaign. creatineinfo.org/holidayheroes/ I saw firsthand the impact of your donations while at the Paris symposium, where I talked to researchers seeking treatments for #CTD. Your #donations fund their work and support affected families. Thank you!

Getting the holiday spirit going and making #ornaments! I'll be selling these and a bunch of other holiday decorations throughout December to raise money for the Association for Creatine Deficiencies. Message me if you're interested! #christmas #creatinedeficiency #CTD #fundraiser #crafts
