Did you know that at birth Rett Syndrome is completely undetected? Imagine you have a baby girl who is happy and healthy. You develope dreams for her future and think about what shell be like when she grows up. Will she be crazy and talkative or shy? Your dreams start becoming real as she learns to walk and crawl. She says "I love you mamma" and no one reads your little girl like you do. Now imagine that you wake up one morning and this beautiful little girl seems to have hit a wall. She stares up from her crib, hands in her mouth, and it seems like your little two year old hurricane has gone back to being a newborn in a toddler body. After months of scared testing you finally find the answer and the outlook isnt so good. Your crazy little girl has Rett Syndrome. She may never say she loves you again. Shell laugh at nothing, and cry for hours for no reason other than frustration of being trapped in her own body.
Please help find the cure for Rett Syndrome so that the little girls that are trapped will be free. So that this doesnt happen to anyone elses little girls.
