    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,
