On June 3rd, Strategic Insurance Partners will be walking in honor of our own Darby Rose Wildt and everyone else with 22q.
Darby Rose was diagnosed at birth with 22q and has faced many challenges due to her diagnosis, including open heart surgery, multiple GI surgeries, palate surgeries and esophageal surgeries. She has defied the odds and is an absolute gift to all who are lucky enough to know her. While her journey with 22q is lifelong, with the support of an incredible family, community and her future is so promising.
The 22q Family foundation is dedicated to raising awareness for 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome while connecting, supporting and offering accurate information to families affected by the diagnosis.
22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome is a chromosomal abnormality effecting about 1 in every 1,000 births, that can cause a wide range of health and developmental issues, including heart defects, breathing issues, GI issues, immune and endocrine systems, differences in the palate, slow growth, developmental delays or learning disabilities in some individuals. Children diagnosed with 22q may have many or only a few of the over 200 symptoms, with varying severity.
The SIP family asks that you join us in supporting this incredible organization while raising awareness for 22q. Every dollar we are able to raise will help individuals and families affected by 22q find the resources they need to navigate an often overwhelming journey.
