Leo’s Genetic Results Update: PMM2-CDG
Quick update with Leo’s Genetic Results.
Leo recently received an official diagnosis called PMM2-CDG. It is a super rare autosomal recessive disorder which is the reason for his Cerebellar Hypoplasia and ataxic cerebral palsy.
We are doing well and Leo is amazing. Hoping to share more about this diagnosis in the future.

    Hello, I don’t usually leave comments. I’m 29 and have ataxic and spastic cerebral palsy. I use a manual wheel chair and go to physical therapy. I wasn’t diagnosed for some time. I just wanted to give you hope and let you know Leo will be ok and have a happy life. Everyone’s case is different. I was so spastic I was born cross eyed. After a failed strabismus surgery I now have a lazy eye. I use my right eye predominantly. I have issues with depth perception but it is wonderful you have early intervention. A lot of people with cerebral palsy do well but it can be traumatic to find out. I want to let you know you’re doing everything he would need to succeed. I don’t know if he has spasticity but baclofen Has been incredible for me. I wish you all the best. Reach out with any questions

    As a mother myself. I can imagine how traumatic this discovery can be finding out your child could have a profound disability. And as a person who has worked with children who have disabilities, I would like to say that yes, it's going to be a difficult journey, there are lots of parents with children who have disabilities. You'll have an amazing and supportive community behind you. Early Intervention is a hugely positive thing to look into. The SPED departments in day care and preschools are really good advocates and of course the rest of Leo's care team can help him lead a life that he is capable of. 15% of the world has some form of disability. And we will happily accept Leo into our community. Love from an Autistic Mum

    Are AIN's aloud to perform ECG's or bladder scans? What about altering oxygen levels with the witness of a nurse. Also, can AIN's take out a cannula or draw up normal saline? I've seen some do these on the floor so I'm curious about their scope or maybe they are trained to do it?

    Hi, I may attend to the business degree (undergraduate) as an international student at the university of sydney next year. (i study ib diploma in the uk btw) I saw many negative reviews about this university for some reason even though it's well known in Australia. Some say the teaching quality is poor compared to ivy league unis or russell group unis, and others say it's too easy to get into there compared to those mentioned group unis and therefore it't not prestigious. Although the university ranking for business management at USYD is around 46 in the world. Here is the question; What's the position of the business management student at USYD in terms of the academic level? Also, what's your general view about this university? Is this university about as good as UCL or LSE or KCL... if you know? (those are the top unis in london.) Sorry for a lot of questions! Hope you see this comment!
