I just wanted to say that I've seen a LOT of descriptions of PWS on different websites and yours seems to be one of the most *accurate* and comprehensive!! Thank you so much. You have no idea how important it is to those of us who deal with PWS that when the public is educated about it, that they are getting good information. Keep up the good work!!” Name not published (HIPAA) “I’m a second year MSW intern at the Regional Autism Center at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
