I am raising money for Chloe Hollinsworth. A 14yr old girl with CS, Cockayne Syndrome.
What is Cockayne Syndrome?
Cockayne Syndrome (CS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by poor growth, microcephaly, progeria (premature aging), sensitivity to sunlight, moderate to profound developmental and neurological delays, and a shortened lifespan. CS is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. In order for a child to be affected by CS, he or she must inherit a mutation (-) in the same CS gene from both parents. The parents and other “carriers” of a single CS gene mutation remain healthy. Once a couple are known to carriers, they have a 1 in 4 (25%) chance of having another child with CS.

Chloe is an amazing girl with some much joy. She loves cuddles, and yelling. Her mother is phenomenal with everything. Please let's raise money for this little beauty.
