What Is Treacher Collins Syndrome?
10. Psychological Support
Treacher Collins syndrome is going to be seriously disfiguring for a lot of people. This can be particularly difficult for young children that can have difficulties being accepted by others. What’s more is that while the child may appear to be abnormal, they still generally have the same cognitive abilities that other children do.
Children with the condition will need psychological support to help give them the best quality of life possible. With the right support, and assuming their mutations allow it, they can go on to live relatively normal lives. Many will go on to get an education, find work, and even start a family of their own.
