    2 of my 3 children have the CDH1 gene. My son has had his stomach removed at Mass General Hospital in Boston, MA. My daughter, 36, has not yet had surgery. She’s conflicted about having a pregnancy first. If I can be of any assistance in your research please email. I am grateful for your work.
    Sincerely,

      Lorraine and Cathy, you’re stories are inspiring. I wish you both the best of luck with your surgeries and recovery. Right now, it’s hard for me to imagine being in your shoes, but I will most likely be there at some point. Thanks for sharing.
