My daughter is the most kind and beautiful child I know, I love her the way she is but I worry about her future with out a name for what makes her special. She has moderate mental retardation, she is smart enough to know she is different. It breaks my heart to see her hold herself away from other kids because she is scared they will reject her. Her skin is extremly dry and it cracks due to pseriosis and exzuma. Since she has hit puberty her bones have weakend. She feel in our house(on carpet from standing)and broke her jaw in two places. She has bone spurs on her elbows and knees. She is showing hemihypertrophy now in her hands, feet, and breasts. She has abnormal facial features acording to her pediatrition. She looks like anyone else to me. Asthma is geting to be scary also. Genetic testing was performed 4 years ago with no diagnosis, going to be tested again next month. I know I cant change her I love her the way she is, want to know what to expect in the future.

Ignore R-Diz, it is trying to scare you. I have no idea what that hemihypertrophy is but it might be the name of the problem. Hopefully, the new tests will give you an answer. The doctors will be able to help with what is in the future. Good luck and keep the faith.

Are you able to take her to St. Judes Hospital? They will find the answer. They will see her even if you can't pay. It's a great place. She is lucky to have a mom like you. Best of luck to you both.

That is sad. If your hospital isn't helping, get referred to a specialist! They can get answers for you.
Good luck!
