Cri du Chat Syndrome

When asked about her syndrome, Emily will tell you it’s cry like a cat syndrome or 5p- and that she is missing a small piece of the short arm of her 5th chromosome!

When it was time to write about it, I think the word chromosome scared her so she wrote this instead:

“I don’t see myself different”

This statement is more powerful than anything I could ever write.
