The stunning sight of a newborn with white hair has drawn attention, but not all responses have been favorable.
Patricia Williams was overcome with love and adoration when she first saw her baby son. Her infant, however, was unusually white-haired and pale-skinned.
After a moment of awe, she began to wonder why her kid didn’t appear like his elder brothers. Following a few weeks and several medical consultations,
Patricia and her husband were shocked to learn that their kid had albinism, a rare genetic disorder that impairs the formation of melanin, the pigment that gives skin, hair, and eyes their color.
Although the diagnosis was unexpected, it also helped them understand many of the characteristics that had baffled them from the start.
