Ashley talks with Danielle Williams, Mom to two daughters in Australia, each with SYNGAP1.
Show Notes:
Episode 10 comes from “down under” as Ashley talks with Danielle Williams, Mom to two daughters, now 13 & 11 years old, each with the same de novo SYNGAP1 mutation. They talk about the heartbreaks of two diagnoses, living with no sleep, connecting to the community, advice to newly diagnosed families, and the joys of cuddling with a teenager.
