Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease is a rare disease in the world, but relatively prevalent in Israel and undergoes a dominant genetic inheritance (enough of one parent to be at risk). It is an incurable brain degenerative disease that causes brain deterioration for months to death. The disease erupts from the age of 30 and is unknown to date the triggers leading to its onset. In Israel, there are an estimated tens of thousands of carriers with the gene, and many are not even aware of it in their families, until it erupts. It is spreading throughout Israel, and there is currently no way to save a person who got sick. The association, which works on volunteer purity for all its people and many service providers, develops many relationships with researchers around the world as well as unites the families of patients to advance people-based research. These studies can help to illuminate a great deal about the process in which the disease erupts, in order to promote its treatment and prevention. Since the prevalence of illness in Israel is the highest in the world, it is of great importance to the community in Israel to contribute to the advancement of research in Israel and around the world and to help give hope to many people, who live in the shadow of the fear of this disease in their family.

After discovering that both my daughter Maya and I are carriers of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), I founded the association in 2008 with the mission of advancing treatment for this fatal neurodegenerative disease.
