Ryder will be three months Friday! I can't believe how fast time has gone. I love seeing her face light up when I walk in the room or having her sweet face look up at me when she breast feeds.. motherhood is new, exhausting, and hard. Ryder has a rare genetic disease called VLCADD, the body is not able to break down fat to create energy. She is on a strict 3 hour feeding schedule and takes medicine morning/night. I spend hours doing my research on a very rare and invisible disease but with the help of her specialist, she is strong and healthy. I am sharing this to bring awareness, prior to having her I never heard of this and now it will be apart of our lives forever. #vlcaddawareness #vlcadd #vlcad #momlife #awareness #baby #mitochondria #mitochondrialdisease
