Hope on the horizon for Rett Syndrome

Cathy expresses her hopes in this short film about her daughter, Sophie. Sophie has Rett Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder that strikes primarily young girls. Children with the disorder are born without any signs of the syndrome, but they lose their ability to speak by the age of two. Then the children become profoundly disabled, requiring 24 hour assistance with every aspect of daily living.

We created this video is to help raise funds and awareness for The Rocky Mountain Rett Association. RMRA is dedicated to improving the quality of life for children and their families impacted by Rett Syndrome. They provide resources, engage in advocacy, education and awareness efforts, and raise funds to support the search for a cure and to run the Rett Clinic at Children’s Hospital Colorado.
