Rett Syndrome is a neurological disorder that strikes little girls around the time of their first birthday and ends their parents' hopes and dreams for their future. 
Rett Syndrome affects nearly every aspect of these girls' lives: taking away their ability to walk, talk and use their hands. Many have problems with breathing and eating. Many have seizures. 
The condition has been reversed in mouse models, and only with more funds sent to research can this be replicated in humans. 
Please take the time to go to reverserett.org.uk to see the amazing work that Reverse Rett are doing to speed treatments and cures for Rett Syndrome.
