Saliva Samples May Help Diagnose SMA & Moving Into a New Home with SMA

SMA News Today’s multimedia associate, Price Wooldridge, discusses how a study showed for the first time that genetic analysis of dried saliva spots correctly identified people with spinal muscular atrophy. Also, when you have SMA there are additional aspects to consider when doing things like moving into a new house. Halsey Blocher references some of these challenges in her article, “Giving Thanks for Our New Home.” She talks about how they’ve made the transition easier and steps she’s taken to make her new space feel like home.
