Episode 010: Russell Silver Syndrome and Motherhood

The road to motherhood can be challenging and for a woman with a rare form of dwarfism it very often poses extra complications and support.

In this episode, four Russell Silver Syndrome (RSS) women who are mothers join Kim to discuss their personal journeys to motherhood and how having RSS can have an impact and what positive/negative experiences they had along the way.

They will also share words of advice for various groups of people who may be listening and finally they share precious memories of their children.
