NEWLY DIAGNOSED? WELCOME, WE WERE THERE NOT LONG AGO...
Receiving a diagnosis of a HUWE1-related neurodevelopmental disorder can be difficult, but you are not alone. We believe approximately 100 individuals have a confirmed diagnosis. Understanding of the impact of changes in the HUWE1 gene is still developing and people can vary in the range and extent of symptoms they experience such as developmental delays, intellectual disability and growth issues. Each individual with HUWE1 will have their own unique profile, challenges and strengths.
At this time, Louie's Huwe, the charitable nonprofit for HUWE1, are keen to support you with information and advice. Download our latest Welcome Guide for Newly Diagnosed families and learn more about...
