116 - Bold and Kind - Meet Madison
Update: 2023-04-11
Description
When Madison reached five months old, her doctors grew concerned that she wasn't growing or measuring on the growth chart, her forehead was misshaping, and she had scoliosis with a 45-degree curve in her spine. With loose joints and everything clicking and popping out of place, Madison was sent to Standford for more testing.
A complete head-to-toe skeletal survey showed that along with having flatter bones, both of Madison’s elbows were dislocated, her shoulders weren’t ossifying and she had abnormalities in her pelvis, known as trident acetabulum, which is an indication of skeletal dysplasia.
And so, the family was referred to genetics with the hope for more concrete answers.
