Rare condition
Audrey suffers from Diamond Blackfan Anemia (DBA). It is a rare disorder when the bone marrow is unable to produce enough red cells. Sadly, this is a life-threatening condition that influences the body’s ability to circulate oxygen, and it has resulted in many health problems for the young child.
Now she is nine years old, but the girl doesn’t grow like other children. However, nothing can stop Audrey from living a full life, because she is incredibly strong! The skillful youngster has learned cute chorographical moves at her Zumba class in Louisville, Kentucky. Also, she has a great collection of dolls. Her favorite musicians are the Beatles, Bruno Mars, and Taylor Swift.
Due to her condition, she has had to undergo more than 20 blood transfusions and is likely to have to endure more in the future. Audrey was also born with a hole in her heart and a cleft palate, and the steroids she has to take are slowing down her growth.

Once people realize she has a life-threatening illness, it really touches their hearts.
