WoodmenLife Tower to Light Green on the Eve of Phelan McDermid Syndrome Awareness Day
Omaha, Nebr. – The WoodmenLife Tower will be green tonight, just before Phelan McDermid Syndrome Awareness Day.
This rare genetic condition, according to the Phelan McDermid Syndrome Foundation website, is caused by a deletion or variation of the terminal end of chromosome 22 in the 22q13 region or a disease-causing mutation of the SHANK3 gene. It impacts multiple systems of the body and can impair mobility, communication, intellect, and other areas of life.
WoodmenLife will share this on social media with the hashtags #PMSF, #PMSFAD and #LightWoodmenLifeTower.
To see a schedule of upcoming tower lightings or to request one, visit the WoodmenLife Tower Lighting Partnership website.
