July 12 -15: NewsBlaze Cartoonist Supports Marfan Foundation

M.J., editorial cartoonist, donates original autographed sketch and a finished autographed version of this cartoon.

Newsblaze editorial cartoonist and creator of the FIDDLESTIX cartoon strips, M.J., is donating an original autographed sketch, along with a finished autographed version of a cartoon created especially for the conference.

From July 12 through 15, the National Marfan Foundation's 23rd Annual Conference will be held at Stanford University, Palo Alto, California. The Foundation helps those with the genetic Marfan syndrome through treatment and support. Tens of thousands of people with the Marfan syndrome in the U.S. are undiagnosed; without a proper diagnosis and treatment, they are at risk for a sudden, early death.

An auction - called Heart Mart - will be held at the conference to benefit its scholarship foundation through donations from organizations and individuals.

The cartoon and full story can be seen at 'http://newsblaze.com/story/20070709083529nnnn.nb/newsblaze/TOPSTORY/Top-Story.html'
