THE SPARK
Kristine Barnett’s son Jacob has an IQ higher than Einstein’s, a photographic memory, and he taught himself calculus in two weeks. At nine he started working on an original theory in astrophysics that experts believe may someday put him in line for a Nobel Prize, and at age twelve he became a paid researcher in quantum physics. But the story of Kristine’s journey with Jake is all the more remarkable because his extraordinary mind was almost lost to autism.

Welcome to Ava's Blog.
Ava was born with a rare genetic disorder, Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP).
A condition that prevents her skin healing from sun damage.
In this blog I share my stories of my daughter and I, and what
it's like living with XP
Unlike most children, Ava can't spend time in the sun, while she has her days outside, it is still very limited, even with sunscreen. She mainly goes out when going to hospital or when we can afford it, she goes to a shopping mall or indoor kids area where she can interact with other children. Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a very rare genetic disorder and there is currently no cure, she also has microcephaly (small head size) she has dwarfism and a learning disability. Every day life can be challenging, but we stay motivated and find ways to progress. I just want to share our life stories, so more people are made aware of rare genetic skin disorders and to let you know your not alone.
Ava can't be defined by her skin or mental disorder, her personality and heart is more special than words can describe, making her 1 in a million... And i wouldn't want to change her in any way. Even tho Ava has mental delays and is non-verbal Ava is very smart, when she is around other children she always tries to act like a parent and sometimes even shows children how to do things in a safer way.
It's also so hard finding the right moisturizing lotions and sunscreens for childrens delicate skins, even the right hair products can be a daunting task to find, especially for curly hair, so many expensive products i have tried but just never seem to work. I will also share any recommendations for what I or others have found useful that actually work.
