Quotes
- "I couldn't tell them anything about their daughter's disease. I couldn't tell them what had caused it or why. I could offer some encouraging words about therapies that may potentially help, but what they really wanted to know was why."
- "Anyone who likes to play with toys has got to like science, they are the world's best toys."
