Anna Costato, director of the new group, is also a member of GIST Support International. She stated "I do hope that many Italian Gist patients (apparently there are as many as 788 Gisters in this country) can be reached in future months and benefit from this initiative, especially those who are not familiar with foreign languages and have been feeling isolated and alone so far."
