Review for Cornelia de Lange Syndrome Foundation, Inc., Avon, CT, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My daughter was diagnosed with CdLS 16 years ago. The foundation was an amazing help to us during that time and since then to be honest. For a time, after she was first diagnosed, I was the Awareness Coordinator for WA. Between that and just being a parent I was able to get so much information and help in dealing with her, her doctors, the early intervention programs and more. They hooked me up with other parents in the area and I was became a part of a email group that was a huge help with issues and problems specifically related to the syndrome. I live in a small town and we don't have any kids with this here as well as when you tell people they are really surprised. Now that she is 17 and a teen with all of the puberty issues, again having the website as a continuing resource for information on behavioral meds and specialists, child psychiatrists and what to ask them as well as personal experiences from other parents who have gone through this has been invaluable during the times of extremely high stress with her. Thank you for being here all of these years and the promise to continue to be here for us!
