Re: Harlequin Icthyosis Baby
I want to smack that dumbass mother. At least pick him up and give the little guy some comfort before he dies.  |

Re: Harlequin Icthyosis Baby
I have to wonder about pain though...I've never seen a harlequin baby cry, or show any form of vocal expression with regards to being touched or held....

Re: Harlequin Icthyosis Baby
Even if it did survive, the treatment it gets might be that bad that the poor child would be in pure agony for the rest of it's life. Plus the family might reject it. Not only for social reasons but because of the cost of treatment.

Re: Harlequin Icthyosis Baby
I'm not sure they can cry, seeing as their eyes are like lumps of coagulated blood with skin over them in most cases. I have seen pictures of some that aren't so severely affected crying though. Their vocal chords are also affected as well, as with the eyes, some more severely than others.
