hello :)

I found this website…www.rightdiagnosis.com/d/dwarfism/intro.htm..Which gives a lot of information including an overview of what Dwarfism is (short stature). This includes symptoms, causes, treatments, misdiagnosis, home testing, types, deaths, prognosis, research, and statistics dealing with Dwarfism. It’s interesting because there are several different causes and types of Dwarfism and can be a complication of another condition, it can be a symptom, and it can be hereditary. The site also identifies Dwarfism as a rare disease which means it affects less than 200,000 Americans. There is a forum on the website to allow people to post on the page. Check the page out, there are lots of resources. Also, I typed out another post but while the title for the page was there, the words for the body of the post was gone. So, here it is again. The father of the family discussed on this blog is the chapter leader. http://home.fuse.net/LPAChapter16/About%20us%20temp.html. There are different chapters around the country to help serve and encourage little people. It is all through the LPA. There are meetings for support and helpful links. See what you think!
