Mr. Gretzky99 ,

Outstanding

So much good information. Loved the MythBusters episodes!!

Amplifying patients

This podcast is an easy listen, and I like hearing the experiences of patients and caregivers impacted by PK Deficiency. It’s also nice to hear from some of the medical people working on advancing treatments — getting to hear directly from them makes them human, to me, and helps me appreciate what they have to say.
