AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend the Massachusetts General Laws to require the governor to annually issue a proclamation setting apart May 6th as Moyamoya Awareness Day. Moyamoya is a rare neurovascular condition that causes the walls of the internal carotid arteries to thicken and narrow, reducing blood flow and increasing the risk of transient ischemic attacks and strokes. The bill aims to raise awareness of this condition, which can affect both children and adults.
