Alyhia

There are many down sides to CES and although it is very rare, individuals born with this syndrome can have a multitude of problems. However, that is not to say that every single individual is endowed with several of the inflictions listed on page nine. One example of this is a baby girl (Alyhia), now five months old, who has CES. Alyhia was born two weeks early on November 7, 2010. She was small, at five pounds zero ounces and 17 inches in length. However, at the age of five months she is now 12 pounds 7 ounces and 22 inches. She has developed quite a bit since her birth, both mentally and physically.  So far she shows no other symptoms except that of Coloboma in her left eye. Her left eye is shaped like that of a cat and she has slight sensitivity to sun light. Alyhia is only five months old so it is hard to say for sure that she is free and clear of all ailments. At this time her health is good. Her parents are proud and expect her to do great things. They love her eye and say that it makes her even more special and unique. They thank God every day for the mild symptoms their daughter shows and prays that it will stay that way (Anonymous).
