October- Day 8

Hey everyone! i know this blog and organization is everything Rett but i just want to mention something different. As well as Rett Syndrome awareness month, october is also down syndrome month. I know a remarkable woman who has a daughter with Rett, Brooklyn, and a son with down syndrome, Boston, and those kids are SOOO adorable. they both have remarkable stories, Boston was born at only 2 pounds! hes a real miracle baby.

and Noww its time for the Rett fact of the day!

Did you know that not only does Rett Syndrome affect the little girl it traps but it changes the whole family. I have been priviledged enough to meet some VERY amazing families that have been affected by Rett. Ive spent evenings hanging out with three kids under the age of 11 that all have a sibling with Rett Syndrome. These kids, one of them being my cousin, are amazingly mature. Theyve learned the ways of there sisters and can read them better than most, theyve raised awareness and money for them, they know medical stuff that no 10 year old should have to know.  These kids have become older and more mature completely against there will because of Rett Syndrome, i love this group of kids and look up to them because they know the good in the world. Thye know wrong from right. Thank you Sarah, A, C, R, and V, you guys are amazing. (names are shortened for security)
