Our 13 year old son has WS. Recently he has been stiffening his body and standing very rigid for approx 5 seconds, but for no apparent reason. He has had an ultra scan, but nothing has been discovered that may explain this behaviour, and he is now to have another hospital appointment to try and find if there is a medical reason, possibly connected to his bowel, as to why he may be behaving like this.
Has anybody else had a similar experience with their child?
Has anybody heard of this before, if so, what was the outcome?
Any info at all would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, I am the mum of a WS daughter who is now 7. We have had real problems with feeding since about 9 months but are gradually improving. I was determined to avoid tube feeding so we tried any other method of encouraging her to take calories, it took 2 years for her to feed from a spoon without gagging at the sight of it but now eats well of a few different things.
Lauren attended mainstream nursery but goes to a special needs school which she loves.
We were lucky in so much as she was diagnosed at 9weeks and so has been "in the system" from the word go. We have had lots of help and her statmenting went very smoothly thanks to portage and preschool teachers. She goes to brownies, gym club and horseriding and enjoys music. Please get in touch, especially if local, as always good to meet other parents.

Hi There, My WS daughter, age 34, is having trouble with her teeth. She is being treated for gum disease, which has made her front teeth a bit insecure, but has tripped and bashed her face causing further trauma to the teeth which are now very wobbly. Her dentist is not sure we can save them, at the monment they're wired together to give them a bit more stability, but the thought of what might happen next is rather daunting.
Is there anyone out there who has had experience of major dental treatment for someone with WS? I'd be grateful if you could get in touch.
Aside from the dental issues, my daughter is doing very well, living independently & getting a great deal out of life.
