Parent Testimonial

"I am a mother of a son who has Prader-Willi Syndrome. The challenges we have had to face throughout his life right from a toddler to elementary school to high school and adult life, the Ontario Prader-Willi Syndrome Association has always been a phone call away. I am so deeply grateful to have the Association with all the advice, support, research, resources, passion, professionalism, and my crying phone calls, because I had nowhere to turn. Throughout the 28 years I could have not done it without their help.”
