Our two-year-old daughter, Alannah, was born with a very rare genetic disorder called

CDK13. The misspelling in this gene can cause various delays and disabilities, including the ability to walk and talk. She has been making great progress in therapy over the past year but we believe now is the right time to help give her an extra boost by attending a therapy intensive where she can have daily focused attention that we believe will help her move

closer towards the goal of being able to walk. The intensive that she will be attending will be for three weeks in Texas during August. This is obviously an expensive endeavor with

not only the cost of the intensive itself but also airfare and lodging, but we are hopeful in

what will be accomplished during this time. We appreciate any gift you are able to give towards this opportunity for Alannah.
