re: Friend's kid was diagnosed with atypical Rett's syndrome. Damn.

My kids are healthy and we are lucky. Every time my wife wants another it makes me worry about stuff like this. I work with a guy who has a daughter with Rhett’s. He is truly miserable. She requires 24/7 care and they have 3 other kids. I feel like my life is hard some days and then I see him sitting in his office dreading going home. I really worry about his mental stability because he seems completely exhausted all the time and very depressed.
