I am a teacher of the visually impaired and have received a new student who has mito. I am interested in hearing from others who have children or work with children whose vision is affected by their mito to find out what kinds of educational programs are optimal.

Hello, I am mom to Seanie, age 7, unclassified Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorder (FOD). This disorder, along with Mitochondrial disorders, is detectable by Comprehensive Newborn Screening. I would like to thank the members of MITO-DOC for their efforts in getting NBC to to air the ER episode highlighting the need for and argument against, Comprehensive Newborn Screening. You are responsible for educating millions of people in a single night. Thank you.

Here is an idea that may be worth the while! Florida does not screen routinely for metabolics that are very important. Other states are mandated (ie: NC screens for 30) to do so. Perhaps our state legislation and senate needs to hear from us!

I was glad to find this site where you combine personal support with good information on mitochondrial diseases. The Web has become the World Wide Library of information and communication for people with similar difficulties. These opportunities did not exist only a couple of years ago, but now you can reach and educate people all over the world who have these problems. Welcome to the Internet !

I met Faith in the Christian Bookstore a few days ago when she was looking for the song, "Beauty for Ashes" by Crystal Lewis. She is a sweet person and I will be praying and her family along with the rest of the group.
