Did you know that Fragile X Syndrome is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability? It’s caused by a mutation on the X chromosome—basically, a genetic glitch that affects brain development. 🧠⚡ People with Fragile X may have learning challenges, social anxiety, and unique ways of seeing the world. But here’s the thing—they are full of heart, personality, and resilience! 💙 With the right support, they thrive. Let’s raise awareness and break the stigma! #RareDiseaseSouthAfrica #RD
