Makes alot os sense to my family , we lost a family member at the age of 11, because he was not giving the right treatments. So now my son has this same rear illness ans we need to leave Canada and go to the NIH for proper treatment for CGD.-this is rare illness , low white cells, low immune system, and alot of infections.usually the lungs liver pick up fugus and bacteria very easily...death at a young age is an awful thing..A cure needs to be found...thanks for listenning.
