Yesterday, I shared an interview with Brody. He is one of only 25 people ever to be diagnosed with Van Maldergem syndrome. As a result, he is DeafBlind and intellectually disabled. He was not expected to survive birth, but is now 15 years old. I wanted to share this photo we took after the interview. We were smiling and enjoying our time together. Thanks for your continued support and kindness to those who are featured on SBSK!

After watching the interview, I can tell Brody is a loving, and well loved, individual and a kind soul. You can tell he just wants to be talked to and treated like a human being, even if he can't communicate back the same way. What a lovely family he has.

Wow, Chris! This is amazing! There are so many children (and grownups) who have truly benefitted from the awesome advancements in medicine! So many people are here today who would not have been here 60 years ago! We truly have so much to be thankful for!

It doesn't matter what deficits your child has ..don't ever give up teaching them. You never know when something will suddenly click and they will have a new neural path to travel and more branches to add. What a joyful smile. ❀️
