>My best friend's daughter was diagnosed with Methylmalonic
Acidemia just last week. The baby is almost 6 months of age. We
are looking for help and hope in this trying time. If I could be
added on the mailing list or where I could get information about
this disorder, it would be greatly appreciated. My e-mail is
hansen@.... This has come as a shock to all and we are
looking for good news. Thank you for responding to this quickly.

Spring,

My 16 year old son has MMA and despite some kidney damage from his
condition he is otherwise very healthy and doing well. He takes formula
daily and maintains a low protein diet. Hope this helps you some to know
there are other kids doing well with this condition. There seems to be a
great variance in how individuals are affected be this condition.
