From the Florida heat we flew to the very pleasant weather of Atlanta to meet with my hero mum friend E. and her teenage daughter A. who has hypochondroplasia and has had lengthening on both the arms and legs and is basically my height.
We had such a great weekend. Talking to someone going through the same rare journey with a similar outlook on life is such a unique treat. I will remember the dynamic of the weekend and the discussions we had for years, quite probably for ever.
Discussing the difficulties honestly is never easy, but it is a lot easier when you have a soul-mate to share with.
Petite yet fierce - Ramblings of a pathologically information hungry mother about hypochondroplasia, about rearing 3 girls in a foreign country and about all the random thoughts my sleep deprived and over-stimulated brain can come up with.
