I just have to say that I am delighted to have the opportunity to share with others on a global scale on issues related to rare chromosome disorders and 22q11.2 deletion in particular. It really is extraordinary to think of the connections that can be made worldwide and to know that this knowledge is for everyone. I sincerely hope that in particular those that are affected by rare chromosome disorders benefit the most and are encouraged to join in the discussions thereby helping them to realise their full potential and helping the rest of us to learn from them. I for one have a lot to learn and they have a lot to teach me.

Hi my name is Lindsey..My son Lukas has 22q11.2 micro-duplication. I know that this is for the deletion but my son's syndrome isn't on here as of yet so I thought maybe people that are familiar with deletion have also heard of duplication. If anyone knows about it or has even heard about it please let me know. Thanks, Lindsey You can e-mail me at lindseysuks@yahoo.com
