Ambers story......

We had our beautiful baby girl on Monday 16th May we couldn't have been more smitten she is just perfect. She was was growing into her skin just nicely but after a couple of weeks we noticed she has become very floppy and she found it very difficult to control her head.  On her 6week check she was admitted to hospital after the doctor was concerned about her floppy head, arms, legs and particularly her breathing.  After several tests we were told we wouldn't be going home anytime over the weekend as we would have to go to another hospital for further tests.  After a week of being in hospital and all tests exhausted the bad news was given to us, our baby girl was diagnosed with sma type 1, a life limiting condition. After a lot of research in to the condition we found this is a very rare genetic condition caused from smn genes carried by both the mother and father, if you would like to know more about it please visit the sma trust page. This is why we want to create more awareness for people who could be potential carriers and money to help fund a cure.  We are blessed with e are able to have our daughter at home with us to create as many happy memories as possible.
