“Fate whispers to the warrior, ‘you cannot withstand the storm’. The warrior whispered back ‘ I am the storm”

Colton is a resilient little boy who tackles an enormous amount of battles as he lives with CRELD1- a genetic mis-sense. CRELD1 is classified as an ultra rare genetic condition, and he is only 1 of 14 ever reported in genetic history around the world. Currently, he is the only person in the world with a dual diagnosis of creld1 and congenital myasthenia syndrome. He is our one in a billion boy.

Colton fights intractable epilepsy, CMS, adrenal insufficiency, restrictive lungs, G-J tube feeding dependent, submucosal cleft palate to name a few.

In his 2 years he has spent now roughly 300 days inpatient hospitalized from 3 days to 30 days at a time.
