Genetic disorders

Has anyone ever heard of Noonan's - No Does anyone here have a child with Noonan's - No Does anyone have a child with a different disorder -No, praise the Lord I have been blessed with 4 children and 5 grandchild and none have had any disorders.

Hi honey, I'm so sorry I have never heard of this, but I'm sure your son is a wonderful little person in his own way! I hope your little boy has his surgery soon and everything goes well foryou all. If you ever need to talk about it all, I promise to listen, I may not be able to help but I promise to be there and try and help you make sense of things if you need someone to. Please let all your friends here know how he gets on! My 7 year old has Autism, ADHD and suspected Dyspraxia, non of which are luckily life threatening. He had an MRI scan this week to try and confirm that his headaches are stress related.

Yes, I have heard of Noonan's syndrome. I am a nurse (work as a nursing professor now) and last year while working with students at our small local hospital, a geneticist from a larger city came to see several patients that the local pediatricians had referred. One of the children that was examined that day had Noonan's syndrome. He was the most beautiful child present. He had snowy blond hair and the most precious smile. He was hard of hearing but could smile his way through anything! He was going to have to go to a larger hospital and have a heart surgery due to problems associated with the Noonan's. I don't think that I have ever seen a more loving child. My students fell in love with him!

I have never heard of Noonan's syndrome before, and I do not have a child with it nor were any of my children born with any kind of disorder, I was truly blessed with healthy children. My sister had the most severe case of epilepsy I've ever heard of, and suffered brain damage as a result. But other than that, so far our children are ok. I wrote Noonan's syndrome down so I can go back later and read up on it. I am so sorry that your precious child was born with any kind of disorder. I have notced that the children who are born special, are the most precious natured little angels of all. God bless you and your family.
