la Gazette Bonsoise Cutis Laxa Internationale, beyond the frontiers of Bons en Chablais
Alas, we are very sad to let you know about two deaths:
Lucille, who joined our private Facebook group in 2010 and was an active member
and
Safaa who was only 18.
To their mourning families we give our support and thoughts in this difficult time.
Since we set up CLI in 2002, 27 patients have passed away. They remain in our hearts and thoughts.
According to the rythm established in 2024, attending numerous meetings and webinars online meant better progress with some projects and greater knowledge and competencies to carry on raising patients’ voice

Dermatology Days of Paris (JDP)
Thanks to our stand during the JDP, I have had the great joy, more than 30 years later, to see again Dr Karim CHERTI.
At that time, he was a junior doctor in the genodermatosis unit at Hôpital Saint Louis in Paris. He was a member of the team who diagnosed my daughter, Cécile, and wrote his thesis on her case.
It was a very moving moment for both of us.
