Welcome to Remarkable – a podcast about the families all over the world, who love someone with Rett Syndrome.
Rett Syndrome is a rare neurodevelopmental, genetic disorder that is caused by mutations on the X chromosome on a gene called MECP2. It causes problems in brain function, and that in turn effects every part of the body – from breathing, to walking, talking, digestion and beyong. There is no current cure for Rett Syndrome.
