Shownotes Transcript

In this month’s episode of On Rare, David Rintell speaks with Cliff and Noreen, the parents of Dylan, a playful, adopted, 15-year-old living with Canavan disease. It’s a heartwarming, funny and poignant conversation about Dylan’s life, the challenges of providing constant care for a severely disabled child and the joy he brings them. As parents of a child with an ultra-rare, fatal genetic condition, Cliff and Noreen live day by day. As Cliff explains, “We focus on what we have now with Dylan and the good times.”
