YOU MAY BE ABLE TO HELP

The Internet is a wonderful tool for bringing people together for many reasons, I am hoping it can be used in this instance to assist and, who knows...maybe do something of a small miracle for an innocent baby boy....so please even if you can't offer any advise..feel free to leave a note in the guestbook or maybe a small pic for Christopher to enjoy...a link to this page will help as well...the more coverage we can get for him..the better his chances are. Thanks.   CHRISTOPHER

Christopher is a beautiful two year old boy who has an illness which no doctor in this area can diagnose.  At age 18 months the doctors realized that he hadn't grown any, he was still the size of a six month old baby.  They called this "Bone Age."Bone Age refers to the test done to determine the childs age as compared to the normal bone density.  His mother was told by doctors that his bones probably wouldn't grow, but his organs would, and this could cause an early death.  The doctors have said that Christopher has grown 2 1/4 inches since he was 9 months old, is mentally retarded, but no other diagnosis is known.
