    I really feel for Kilisha... I had a palsy when I was 16 following a seizure and I hated smiling at people. I didn't want to go out in case people judged me and I was so sad.

    I looked up the MPS2 disorder (mucopolysaccharidosis type II). Just reading about it, it's so horrible. The life expectancy is short, and those with the more severe forms have issues with the brain (behavioral issues, inability to speak, and so on) and a range of other physical things. The mild form still has a short life expectancy :(

      It's a fatal genetic disease that's carried on the X chromosome. Mothers are carriers and their sons can inherit the disorder. I hope that enzyme replacement therapy slows down the disorder enough for the boys to have some quality time.

    I had injury to a nerve when I had my wisdom teeth out when I was in my 40s. When there was no improvement to ,y mouth, I had lost all feeling on the lower left side of my face and tongue, afterr about 5 months I was sent to a doctor who repaired the nerve. About 4-6 weeks later I was eating with some friends and suddenly realized I could taste the food on my left side of my tongue. My nerve doctor had never told me how long it would be before I felt some results. I have about 75-80% nerve sensation after 20+ years but better than nothing.

      You don't lie to them if they ask. BUT you don't ha to discuss it right in front of them, dissecting the case with mortality put right out there. there is a time and a place and that is when they ask, in quiet dignity not right in front of them for a TV show. they could do the parent talk in a different place.

      enzyme pills for someone with CF are different than this enzyme treatment. CF enzymes are usually for the pancreas or intestines and just aid in digestion, while this is a specific enzyme replacement therapy that needs to be given through IV and specialized to the enzyme he is missing.

      (I read too much) I looked up Hunter Syndrome and not only can this drug not be taken orally, at this point the medication will not cross the blood-brain barrier, so it will not help neurologically. Unfortunate.
