THE PETITION IS UP! We've Finally got a petition up to help us gain media attention!! Please go sign it and send it to everyone you know!! God Bless http://www.petitiononline.com/ACCA2009/petition.html ACC is a brain disorder also known as Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum. It means that a person is born with their Corpus Callosum missing completely or partially. The Corpus Callosum is a bundle of nerves in the brain that connects the two sides and sends messages. Corpus means a body or structure while callosum means a bridge. Agenesis means "without devopment. If you are without this part of the brain you can tend to me slower with reaction rates, and in school subjects. Its hard for people with ACC to do normal every day things. This website is here to support those with ACC and those who have family and friends with ACC. It is for both adults and Children who struggle in this. Also though this is to help others that dont even know what ACC is learn about it and be more accepting to people who might have more than the fair share of "blonde moments" or "stupid is as stupid does moments." Living with ACC is hard and so people should know more about it so that those who want to help can and those that just dont get it...can.
