Justice~
Does your neice live in the S.D. area? I am looking for a parent with a child with Achondroplasia. I recently found out one of my twins most likely will have this condition. It is basically dwarfism. I need some one in the San Diego area or a parent of a child with similar experience to email me advice about taking care of my soon coming baby. It isn't very common I guess. My doctor has not had a baby come in her office yet.
I guess by reading on the net, little people are very similar to normal people but just have a short stature. They can have problems with lungs at infancy but it is rare. And there is different types of the disorder. My daughter just seem to have short limbs, arms, legs. Everything else appears to be normal. I will know more when she arrives. I went to college also with a couple of little people so it helped me decide I am definately having this baby. They can live a very normal life..challenging at times I am sure but there are alot more people out there worse off. If you can give me any info..I would appreciate it. I just recently found out about my daughters condition so I haven't talked to anyone else in the area yet, it would be good to hear from someone with answers.
