a family knowledge base

One small hub for everything we're learning about NR4A2.

New research lands here as plain-English summaries, the day it's published. The private side keeps a low-friction daily journal of our son's sleep, seizures, behaviour, and milestones. The public side is a single link to share with family or clinicians.

why this site exists

NR4A2-related conditions are rare. Information is scattered across paywalled journals, clinician notes, and parent forums. Building one calm, curated index that a tired parent can open at 11pm is the whole point.

Nothing here is medical advice. It is one family's notes and a reading list, written down so we can share it.
