Ella and Chloe’s Butterfly Journey

Ella and Chloe’s Butterfly Journey We are Ella & Chloe. We were diagnosed with Cockayne Syndrome in December 2012! Follow our journey 🐛 🦋 Love Ella & Chloe # # #

Cockaynes Syndrome is a recessive genetic disorder, which means both my mummy and daddy carry the mutated gene. It is a premature ageing syndrome where the DNA can't repair itself, which unfortunately leads to a short life expectancy (average age 12). I have made this page to raise awareness of the syndrome and raise money for very important research. Many thanks for reading and keep an eye out for lots of fab days coming up.

Thinking of all the family and his friends ###x

Our sweet little friend, Elias, a beautiful young boy who brought so much light into this world, has gained his superhero wings.

The love and joy he gave will remain with us always.

Beautiful brown eyed boy, run to your friends - you are free.

Thinking of your wonderful family and keeping our arms tightly around them ❤️💙💛

Happy 19th birthday to our incredible Ella Mae 🎈

You have shown us that life isn’t about how long it is, it’s about how deeply it’s lived. And you live with so much heart, strength, and light that it leaves a mark on everyone lucky enough to know you.

We are endlessly proud of you. Endlessly grateful for you. Endlessly in love with you.

Today, and always, we celebrate you 🤍

There are literally no words to describe the last couple of days except they were filled with love, joy, heartbreak, understanding and family. We are so lucky we get to attend this every year, thanks to all of you who help fundraise and support us. ❤️💛💙

Not only do we get quality time with other families we get to see specialist doctors and researchers from all over the world, learning of any updates. We have been doing a study with Dr Kang over the past couple of years now, which we feel is a very small part in helping the research into the history of CS. 🌍

Ella was confirmed at this meeting that she has dementia, something that has come up a couple of times at recent appointments. So we will start processing that and learning ways to keep her brain active. 🧬

But for now feel the joy and love in these photos… until next time 🫶🏻

Where did August go???

We had a blast and can’t believe we are at the end of the holidays already!

We have been to the park, the beach, hospice open gardens, Bubble experience, Twist Museum, a trip to Southend, Greenwich to see mummy’s friend, who is visiting from Australia and lots of visits to see family and friends.

A big thank you to Amy and Friends who took mum to see Tina Turner in London and Alex to Anglesey for the annual sibling camping trip, which gave him a couple of days away from his caring role at home. We are always so very grateful. Here’s to September…
