Hi everyone! I am interested in having this group be a little
more active. :) I thought I would start coming up with some questions
that people could respond to, and maybe it will prompt other
discussions, or at the very least, we can get to know each other a
little better! The responses will also help other parents of 11q
children looking for information. Feel free to respond if you want,
or ignore it if you don't. Or, if you have a good question, please
feel free to post it.
So here's the first question:
What (currently) is your biggest challenge with or related to your 11q
child?
