Leukodystrophy: One Step Closer to a Cure

This compilation chronicles the journeys of families affected by Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) and other Leukodystrophies. It also describes the treatment option available only to some - bone marrow/stem cell transplant; and describes how Newborn Screening (NBS) could detect these diseases at birth. With the help of medical technological advances, the hope of a cure seems within reach. The journeys shared in this book are in the families' own words, and will leave readers filled with hope.
