About Us:
I am the mother to Bridget, who was diagnosed with Aicardi Syndrome at 10 weeks old. We were not given any hope for our child to even hold her head up at the time of diagnosis. Three years later she is walking on her own.
Some Aicardi Angels will never walk, some may never speak, many will be confined to a wheel chair. Some will only be with us here on earth for a short time, but no matter the length of their stay, our lives will never be the same. The uniqueness of each Aicardi Angel is a special gift bestowed on her family. Each family learns to accept this gift, deal with the incredible challenges and persevere, none of which is easy. The rarity of the syndrome makes it difficult to diagnose and treat. The parents have become the experts. The families unite through the AS Foundation and share information ranging from therapy and seizure medicines to (at one point inconceivable) milestones and birthday parties. The families have come together to encourage, support and help each other.
Aicardi Angel Jewelry:
I have been working with a jewelry designer for the past year to create a symbol of hope that we can wear proudly as well as raise funds for the Aicardi Syndrome (AS) Foundation. The design is based on the Foundation’s silhouette, the daughter of the founders. Each piece is hand crafted in 100% solid sterling silver with a blackened satin finish (the finish may vary). The delicate face of the angel elevates from the pendant to showcase her beauty. The words “Aicardi Angel” lie beneath the angel. A genuine cultured pink pearl dangles from the bottom of each piece. Unique by nature, I chose to add a pearl which signifies purity and pink because this syndrome mostly afflicts girls.
