      So basically it’s called ecdermal dysplasia I have it and and it makes you have missing teeth and it also makes your teeth like pegs and you don’t sweat in certain places and also it deeply affects your speech and your pronunciation it affects your skin and hair it gives you like less hair than everyone else it’s very life changing but don’t worry you can only get it from genetics and having less sweat glands you overheat really badly and the risk of having a stroke is higher

    One of the characters in my Turning Pages series of family-friendly novels has ectodermal dysplasia. I'm hoping to spread awareness of the condition.

    I too have HED and I'm not sad about it. It had affected me a lot when I was a kid, but now, I realize that we should live with it.

      I have it as well, it still bothers me a lot at the age of 16, since I‘m not able to do the activities that I want to, such as boxing etc because of not being able to sweat. I‘d say I feel better about it than I used to when I was little, but obviously it leaves you with a sort of negative view towards the world and how unlucky you must be to be one out of 100k people that have it, and not being able to do shit about it. Hope you‘re doing well with it. Any tips you can share that you‘ve learned over the years? Would be highly appreciated.

    I'm the same as him, and it fascinates me, he just looks just like me before. I'm lucky because it's not that bad for me. At times I can't sweat and have very thin hair. Btw very kind of him.
