NF-1

My husband has been lucky in that his NF-1 hasn't resulted in many skin tumours in places that are on public display.
He had quite a number removed from his legs and back when he was young, that's when he had tests and was diagnosed with it.
One of the many blessings of him being in a boys' home.

Blood ties

My husband's grandmother admitted there was Autism in the family.
This is a momentous event as she'd denied there was any learning difficulties at all in her family when my son was first diagnosed.
Then we were told there wasn't Autism in the family but that 'all the boys are slow at school and have odd behaviours'.
