Before meeting the little bundle of joy that has developed in mommy\u2019s belly, all parents must endure an exciting nine-month wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is absolutely no finer feeling than hearing the baby\u2019s first screams when it is eventually born into the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, for other parents, the birth of a child can turn out to be something they could never have predicted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mary and Brad Kish of Illinois, USA, waited anxiously to meet their daughter in the late 1990s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mary\u2019s pregnancy had been trouble-free, and the birth had gone well. During the delivery, there were no signs that anything was wrong with their infant girl Michelle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When she opened her eyes, however, doctors instantly noticed that something was wrong. They didn\u2019t know what it was until they combed through medical texts and consulted a geneticist from another hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michelle\u2019s face was wide and childlike. She was also losing her hair and had a nose that looked like a little beak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was discovered that she had Hallermann-Streiff syndrome, a hereditary condition with only 250 known cases globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201dNo one had ever seen it in person at Children\u2019s Memorial Hospital, where Michelle was born.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the doctor gave us the diagnosis of Hallermann-Streiff syndrome my heart sank. I was worried how are we going to care for our child who had a rare genetic disorder that was one in five million,\u201d <\/strong>Michelle\u2019s mother told the Daily Mail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michelle has 26 of the 28 symptoms that are associated with the condition. The condition affects only one in every five million people, yet it produces a slew of health issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michelle has Hallermann-Streiff syndrome as well as dwarfism, which means she can barely reach over her sister\u2019s waist despite the fact that they are just two years apart in age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michelle\u2019s condition necessitates a great deal of support, including an electric wheelchair, hearing aid, probe, respirator, and visual aids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michelle and her family have also had to spend a significant amount of time in the hospital as a result of the illness. She is sometimes misidentified as a youngster due to her appearance, despite the fact that she is 25 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNow Michelle is a 20-year-old woman, she is smart as a poodle and she is happier than ever. She is one of the happiest 20-year-olds I know,\u201d<\/strong> Mary, her mother, told the Daily Mail in 2018. She went on to say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe enlightens people\u2019s lives with their joy. She knows she\u2019s different but doesn\u2019t let it break her down.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michelle is a fantastic and unusual young woman, despite having to struggle against a headwind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She aspires to be like her older sister and to have a boyfriend, among other things. She doesn\u2019t mind his height because practically everyone is taller than her, but she wishes he had long hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She aspires to be a doctor as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
