Preschool Graduates!!

The girls with their wonderful teacher Miss Jill!!

Samantha Presley and Dylann!!

With their other wonderful teacher Miss Midge!!

I'm a little behind on my posts, Presley and Samantha graduated from preschool the end of May!! They were so excited and so cute in their graduation caps!! Samantha thought that she could go to school the next day and had a little breakdown when she realized it was out for summer! Presley will be going to kindergarten in the fall, and Samantha will be in her last year of preschool, oh how they grow up fast!!!!

My Girls Genetic Disorder Tyrosinemia Type 2

Type II tyrosinemia is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme tyrosine aminotransferase encoded by the gene TAT. Tyrosine aminotransferase is the first in a series of five enzymes that converts tyrosine to smaller molecules, which are excreted by the kidneys or used in reactions that produce energy. This form of the disorder can affect the eyes, skin, and mental development. Symptoms often begin in early childhood and include excessive tearing, abnormal sensitivity to light (photophobia), eye pain and redness, and painful skin lesions on the palms and soles. About half of individuals with type II tyrosinemia are also mentally retarded. Type II tyrosinemia occurs in fewer than 1 in 250,000 individuals.
Dr Longo informed us that there are less that 100 cases of tyrosinemia type 2 reported worldwide. I have four of them.. I am so thankful that Presley was diagnosed when she was (at 13months) and that Sam, Dylann and Hadley were diagnosed at birth. They are on a low-protein diet and are doing great!!
