@RichardEngel @MaryKForrest My first daughter, had #RettSyndrome and passed away a few months after her 18th birthday. Henry was an inspiration and the doctors and researchers at TX Childrens in Houston are amazing.

Henry is still fighting to help kids with Rett, and so are we. @MaryKForrest nri.texaschildrens.org/henry
