WELCOME TO Mitchell's Moments Living with a Urea Cycle Disorder    The Magyar Family's Mission Statement: In April of 2008, our son, Mitchell, was diagnosed with a rare Urea Cycle Disorder. Since his diagnosis, we have made it our mission to: Raise awareness regarding the importance of newborn screening - in an effort to save children's lives - who otherwise might go undiagnosed or undetected. Educate families regarding urea cycle disorders, so they are able to recognize the signs that their child might be suffering from such a disorder. Raise funds for the National Urea Cycle Disorders Foundation (NUCDF). The NUCDF is a non-profit – and the only - organization dedicated to the identification, treatment and cure of urea cycle disorders.  Individuals suffering from urea cycle disorders face many challenges in their lives and desperately need the support and research that is provided by the Foundation. Raise awareness regarding the importance of becoming an organ donor.  Individuals with urea cycle disorders often require a liver transplant.  Please help save a life and become an organ donor. We pray for a day when no child will ever have to suffer from a urea cycle disorder, as Mitchell does every day! As Margaret Mead said, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."  Together, we can make a difference in the world of urea cycle disorders. Our sincerest gratitude to everyone for their support, prayers and positive thoughts as we have struggled to understand Mitch's rare disorder and have started, and will continue, on a journey down a road that is always changing and unknown to us.
