Things Changed Quickly

When Sharon and Brian learned that they were going to have a child, they were overjoyed. Everything changed in the couple’s life after their third ultrasound.

It began with a worried expression on the doctor’s face as he examined the photographs. After bringing in a coworker, it was evident that something was seriously wrong.

Uncertainties

The doctors noted that the baby’s facial structure appeared to have “anomalies.” They didn’t know for sure, but they assumed she had some sort of impairment.

They were told to follow all instructions to not alarm the family. The rest was in the hands of fate.

Freeman-Sheldon Syndrome

The physicians verified her parents’ darkest fears when Melissa Blake was born. She was born with Freeman-Sheldon Syndrome, a rare congenital condition.

Common physical problems include drooping eyes, uneven skulls, and abnormal development of facial muscles. Besides physical limitations, the illness caused a variety of difficulties, including even a shorter lifespan in some cases.

Melissa outperformed her doctor’s predictions for how she would progress and prosper, overcoming every obstacle her condition posed. Sadly, her difficulties had just begun.
