My daughter just turned 7 on May 14, 2006. She has the same deletion but she is mosaic which is a little diff from your daughter. Half her cells have the deletion and the other half are normal. She has had her development delay's and she functions like most children her age. I still dont full understand everything and I have known about her disorder since she was about 4yrs old. But I can tell you this. With my daughter she doesnt display all the things you read about on the web pages. She has the speech delay and motor skill delay but other than that she is just like every other child I know. She did have potty training problems. We didnt get her potty trained untill she was like 5yrs old. Only time will tell for you daughter. I was very scared at first when I found out. She is my first child and my only. She is very loving and sweet, I couldnt ask for better! If you ever want to ask me anything please feel free to ask me.

: girl in the world and you and Renae
