Mito inheritance questions for folks with adult onset of the disease

[Guest guest]

Dear Folks-

How many of the folks here with adult onset mito have children with mito

symptoms too?

How old were your kids when their symptoms started?

Is there anyone else here with no other family involvement?

I'm the only person in my family with any the major symptoms, though my mom has

a

hypothyroid condition and her brother died of ALS at 50. Our family was in a

study at UCLA

which determined that his ALS was not the type that has a familial pattern.

Thanks,

Kathleen
