When your son has the sixth SYNGAP-1 diagnosis in the world- Ft. Monica Weldon from Bridge the Gap

During rare disease week, we had the chance to talk to Monica Weldon, whose son was the sixth person diagnosed with SYNGAP-1, a gene mutation linked to autism. She tells us about her journey from working as a school teacher to becoming the CEO and founder of Bridge the Gap, the first SYNGAP-1 advocacy organization in the world. She shares what it was like to receive a diagnosis that had no structure in place for her son, and how she pushed through the hard times and make progress in research and awareness of sensory processing disorders.
