be aware!

May 8th marked the beginning of the second annual Williams Syndrome awareness week. There are events being held all around the country during this time.
Taken from the association's website, "Williams syndrome is a genetic condition that is present at birth and can affect anyone. It is characterized by medical problems, including cardiovascular disease, developmental delays, and learning disabilities. These occur side by side with striking verbal abilities, highly social personalities and an affinity for music." You can read more about music therapy and WS
