Our page is in honor of Adalia Rose, who captivates everyone she meets, including her new friend, Edie:
“I was instantly drawn to her incredibly beautiful, deep eyes, and personality that is equally as magnetic! I ran a small fundraiser among family & friends, to grant her wish of getting an iPad. But I was blown away when this little angel so big (despite her stature) and full of life stood before me! Since then we have become "bff's"~yet everyone is her BFF! However, I have been blessed to be called her "favorite girl", and I think that's because we share a deep LOVE of all things "girly"! From SHOPPING, to BLINGBLING, to makeup & nails, playing dress up, having tea & slumber parties, and sharing secrets, Adalia is ALL girl to the core! But don't let the "girly" stuff fool you! She's strong and boasts about not being afraid of anything! I've seen this to be true when she stood barely eye to eye with my 45 lb. lab/shepherd mix, and without flinching looked him straight in the eye and said, "Hi Buddy. You're a good dog!” with a giant smile! Her song & dance videos light up a room, her gentle way with her brother will touch the deepest part of one’s soul, her sincere adoration of her family warms hearts! Simple things like watching a butterfly will prompt her to giggle, get big eyes, a giant smile & acknowledge how "beauutifull" (intensified with hand gestures) it is! It is her ZEST for life, her deep, real joy of experiences, her creativity, truly living EACH MOMENT to the fullest, her positive outlook, her infectious smile, contagious laugh & priceless expressions that have made "Bean" one of my favorite people, and an incredible "teacher". Meeting her has been one of just a few highlights in my life, and has changed me, FOREVER! xo I love you Bean! “To the moon and back", we say together!” Thank you for supporting ONEpossible™, when people, ONE at a time, make the hope of a cure for Progeria POSSIBLE. No amount is too small: Our goal of a cure starts with one –YOU. Thank you!
