Ronaldo,

There is a college in the U.S. that welcomes newcomers that want to learn more about the disease and because they do research and utilize patients to learn more, I believe you can get the help you need from them. The college is called the University of Minnesota. Look them up on the web and try to find someone to talk to. I have a nephew that went there when we found out he had ALD. I hope this helps and keep strong for your kids.
