Osteogenesis imperfecta, a lifelong, chronic condition, affects between 25,000 and 50,000 adults and children in the United States. It’s a rare genetic bone disease characterized by a lack of normal collagen needed to form strong bones. The result is frequent bone fractures, sometimes for no apparent reason. There are different degrees of OI, ranging from a neonatal type, often fatal, to a very mild type that can be under diagnosed.

For this sweet child, anger is not a gift. His giving soul is about life and laughter, and he does it well.

While some feel the need to rant and wail, this child soldiers on. I have respect for one so young to be so wise.

Thank you, Cha for adding that quote.

Some of us are better at handling what life throws in their face. They handle it with dignity and not blame. These are the people that will help define our future. Out of the mouths of babes~

I am in awe.
