William Bonnaud Dowell @bonnaud-dowell.bsky.social · 05/05/2026As somebody who rel. recently discovered that it was TRPC6 mutation that lead to my agressive kidney failure as a 13 year old back in 1997, it uplifts me ENORMOUSLY to know there is now real hope for adults but especially kids afflicted by this cruel issue! I really hope this goes all the way! 100
