Meet Davy!!

Davy Jean was born with a rare, yet “not so rare” highly misunderstood and underdiagnosed chromosomal deletion called “22q112 deletion syndrome” that occurs in only 1 in 4,000 births. It’s a tiny glitch in the way her DNA lines up when she was being created that ultimately causes more than 200 known abnormalities and issues. It presents itself differently in every patient, which is why it is so hard to diagnose without genetic testing. Davy’s has presented itself in heart conditions, palate development and hearing problems.

She has been through many surgeries and procedures, but continues to show incredible resilience and brighten up the lives around her.
