The Telegraph ? Dozens of genetic mutations linked to autism in children discovered
Dozens of rogue genes have been found in more than 1,000 children suffering from autism, researchers found. They said the findings come closer to helping identify the root cause of the disability that affects more than half a million people in Britain - and could hasten the development of the first ever genetic test for the condition.

A mother fears she will not live to see her son's first day at school after NHS bosses refused to fund the only cancer drug that can help her. She was given three months to live by doctors who want to use the drug Lapatinib to hold back the disease, which has spread to her brain.
