***azdcpa0912*** Williams Syndrome

Hi there!  I don't frequent the board much these days (life gets busy) but I was scrolling through old posts and saw your DS recently received a WS diagnosis.  I have a 4 year old daughter with WS, and another board mama who is similarly busy with life (Akimbo) has a 6 year old son with WS.  

Happy to chat anytime about life with WS and especially about surviving that infancy time - it's tough but it gets SO SO SO much better!!  I can put you in touch with Akimbo too, and a bunch of other WS moms.  There's a great Facebook group you should join when you're ready.

Hang in there.  Respond here if you want and we can exchange emails by PM.  :)

  • Akimbo here - happy to talk about anything if you'd like. There are no questions too personal and what Jen said is so SO true. Not only does it get so much better - it gets good!
