Mitochondrial Complex I Deficiency, Nuclear Type 25. NDUFB3

Documenting this in case anyone else out there has the same or knows someone with this mito disorder.

My nephew has been diagnosed with the above mito disease. While my sister was pregnant they noticed he at the 1% size range, he stayed this throughout the pregnancy.

He now is born and still struggling to put weight on, breathe on his own and has 4 holes in his heart which doctors believe will clear up on their own.

One noticeable feature is he has shorter pinky fingers on his hands, almost like he’s missing the tips of his finger as they also don’t have a nail.

Currently doctors have put him on a mito cocktail and are adding nutrients and fats to his milk to try and get him to put weight on.
