The quality of everyday life of a Marfan Syndrome patient

One of the hardest everyday activities of a Marfan patient is finding something to wear.  An individual affected with Marfan Syndrome has elongated features making it hard to find fitting pants.  If they buy a pair that actually fits length wise than it probably will not fit their waist because they are also very skinny.  Marfan patients also feel a lot of bodily pain on an everyday basis.  People with Marfan Syndrome do not have very good mental health and suffer from that as well.
