  • Owen lives with a rare genetic thyroid condition. Three years ago, we sat down with Owen and his family to hear about their journey to receiving a diagnosis through whole genome sequencing and the 100,000 Genomes Project.
    In this video, his parents Sarah and Rob share how life has changed for their family in the nearly 5 years since the diagnosis.
    The diagnosis meant the ability to find a treatment that works for Owen. He's also been able to remain in mainstream school and his development has improved.
    Rob and Sarah share how it's taken away so much uncertainty and stress for them and allowed them to get in contact with other families whose children have similar conditions to Owen's.
    As Rob says, 'It's not like "click your fingers" and everything's fixed, but it's an answer and it's a way forward.'
    Genomics can provide hope for the future, and Owen is a powerful example of that.
