I have a 26 year old daughter with 22q.11. I've learned a lot on this journey. Some things might be helpful to some of you, but due to the nature of 22q.11, and how the syndrome manifests differently in each person, some things might not be. I'm simply hoping that people will become educated about this interesting genetic syndrome.

Our conversations with others need to be monitored because even though your child may not be the one you're talking to, they may be listening, and are trying to make sense of everything they are seeing on TV and hearing all around them.
