What is everyday life like? What is the quality of life?

Everyday life is hard when you have any form of Tay Sachs Disease.  DJ, a little boy with Infantile Tay Sachs Disease, could not sit on his own when he was fifteen months old.  After DJ played with his toys, he became exhausted and fatigued.  When DJ was seventeen months old he couldn’t hold his head up anymore; his muscles were slowly becoming weaker.  DJ would not read anymore because he was too weak to turn the pages of the book.  When DJ was twenty months old, he experienced his first seizure; these seizures scared him, but did not cause him any pain.  Near the end of his life, his ability to see was almost gone, but he could still hear.  DJ died three days before his sixth birthday on March 9, 2003.
 DJ is almost two years old in this picture.
This picture was taken approximately one
 year before his death.

  11. I saw Liah's comment about Dr Iyabiye’s medication concerning HIV/aids. I tried it and it worked perfectly. It was like hell living with HIV/aids all this years until now, no more pains, weakness, and no more buying of anti-viral drug everyday to slow down the viral load. I would've come to testify before now but I have to wait for a couple of months to see if it will come back or feel pain as usual, I also went to the hospital for test and i was tested negative. All thanks to Dr. Iyabiye and to you Liah for spreading the good news. Doctor's contact: iyabiyehealinghome@gmail.com +234-815-857-7300
