Abby Gardener describes how she was diagnosed with Wolfram syndrome after developing both insulin-treated diabetes and diabetes insipidus (when the urine cannot concentrate) and how this has impacted her life. Professor Tim Barrett talks about how, throughout his career, he has been researching and providing care for patients with Wolfram syndrome.

He explains that it is now recognised that there are a range of features that can result from the genetic change (WFS1 spectrum disorder) and that not every patient will have all the severe changes previously described in Wolframs syndrome.
