I'm a health "advocist" for my children - advocate + activist = advocist! My identical twin daughters, Addi and Cassi, have an ultra rare a fatal cholesterol storage disorder called Niemann Pick Type C disease. It is often referred to as the "childhood Alzheimer's." Children born with NPC disease inherit double genetic mutations on a critical cholesterol gene located on Chromosome 18. While NPC is an ultra rare disease, every person in the world is born with the NPC gene and this gene regulates human cholesterol metabolism at the cellular level.
