Niko has a dual diagnosis of Williams Syndrome and autism. My friend Rosa's kiddo has the same dual diagnosis. They're pretty special kids in many ways! #WilliamsSyndrome #autism

“I think he has hypercalcemia. Maybe try a Pamidronate infusion. I made up a file stating why I think this is the route to go and what risks we’re looking at.” I am the doctor's best friend.

Young children usually understand more words than they can say: a “comprehension–production gap”.
In a new study, we found that children with Williams syndrome (WS) have a unique profile: their gap is significantly reduced compared to other groups. 🧵 #LanguageDevelopment #WilliamsSyndrome #devpsyc

This is my 1st first author paper & I'm so grateful to the SUPER team @craeioe.bsky.social
for allowing me to do this work & being 100% behind importance of adapting research methods to include #autistic people with LD & people with #WilliamsSyndrome.

The school asked me to pick up Niko, who was cleared to go to school, but just can't kick this cough. Poor kid! I'm sad to cancel lunch with a friend, but I'm sure Niko will make it up with some snuggling.
Also, this hair, man! ❤

The first Williams Syndrome Convention changed everything. For the first time, they saw others just like them—and found a family that lasts a lifetime. Watch the full episode on 3 Beards Media.

Today was a day. Niko had a meltdown at school and beat his head against the wall hard enough to leave marks. His teacher very nearly had to restrain him. Because of the bruising, the school is required to put him on concussion protocol, and I'm keeping an eye on him. #WilliamsSyndrome #autism
