We have just been told that Dr Kleefstra wants permission for ds to be part of a study including children who have strong clinical features of Kleefstra Syndrome, but who have had a negative gene test.
After our inconclusive test results last week and the feeling of being in limbo land, this feels like progress. It is not an answer to why ds has the issues he has or a diagnosis, but hopefully being part of this study, means that something is happening.
We are going to be sent details of what the study requires, what is involved and what the research is looking into. We will also have a meeting (at some point in the future!) with the geneticist at John Radcliffe.
Dh can't see why it is a big deal to me, and I'm not even sure myself, but I feel in a better place than I was before the phonecall, and I'm sure that you lovely, fierce, carrot wielding honking geese will understand!

Not a diagnosis, but feel like we're in a different place for now...
