Albinism Is Beautiful: Parents Celebrate Their Children With One Simple Hashtag

this is a throwback of Noah still in the NICU, days after being born. we had no idea he would be born with albinism, but we were truly blessed with an amazing guy. today is the first ever UN recognized day for International Albinism Awareness. It's an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of people with albinism and join the struggle against the difficulties they face. I'm proud to have a son with albinism and proud to see him overcome his struggles while always staying happy and positive about the future. “Awareness is the groundwork for action, and this first International Albinism Awareness Day is a beacon of hope for people with albinism everywhere,” -the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights💖#albinism #albinismawareness #albinismisbeautiful #internationalalbinismawarenessday #embracetheskinyourein

My sweet baby girl saw her consultant at #AlderHey this week. They confirmed her #Albinism diagnosis and have now registered her as partially sighted. Scary times but her vision has definitely improved in her four short months so feeling #positive #albinismisbeautiful #mummy #daughter #love
