Your Body Is Speaking
Bardet-Biedl syndrome is a rare, genetically determined condition. It affects several body systems simultaneously — the retina, the kidneys, the reproductive organs, the metabolism, sometimes the fingers and toes, sometimes cognitive development. It is not a condition that arises through behaviour. It is not a condition that can be resolved through willpower. It is a syndrome anchored in the genetic foundation itself.
