      solange c yes most likely. There are very few doctors that have ever seen this condition and even fewer specialists to treat it. Once they find a primary whose taken the time to understand what these kids need they rarely change doctors regardless of their age.

    Nick is amazing. I actually have a 12 year old son named Nicholas with a chromosome disorder. He is non-verbal and is the size of a 5 year old. There is something about these kids that make them very special. They have a bigger heart than most people and are just a gift to life. Even with the crap they have to go through, they are still so happy. It is amazing.

      They literally said early in the video that his small head size means that his vocal folds are also small, giving him a high pitched voice. Microcephaly (small head) is a part of the condition. Did you watch it?

    He’s an adorable Angel. He brings so much love and joy to everyone, that’s his purpose. As a Christian, I just know it and feel it. It’s a wake up call to everyone to be greatful and more loving towards one another ❤️

    It makes you wonder sometimes if these people just have too much love and personality and beauty for a body to handle. It's so comforting to know Nick is still doing well and living his best life. I hope for all the joy and happiness he can stand

    What a strong mama. I couldn't imagine my baby being poked and scarred and weak. God bless this family. Put peace in their hearts lord.
