If you want to know about metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD), you've come to the right place! We C.A.R.E., we welcome you, and we're glad that you found us!

"... we have a call in to pediatrician and I know she will ask, what advice are you getting on the [MLD Family Dicsussion List™] group? I think that about says it all on how valuable this group is."

Often your arrival here comes at a time of great personal trauma due to a recent diagnosis or encounter with MLD. We want you to know that you can count on us for support, information and to help you get connected with others who are also on the MLD journey.
