[ Post a Response | 22q Deletion Interest Board ]
Posted by Yasmin Very interesting message. My daughter with 22q11 is only 2 1/2 years old but anything I could do now to help her later would be great! How did you research which minerals and supplements you should take to help improve memory retention etc? Over what length of time did you start to notice results? Thank you for sharing. Its so uplifting to read about successful adults with VCFS! --Previous Message--
