Given below is a list of some of the most rare genetic disorders and people suffering from them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Hodgkiss \u2013 Smith-Magenis Syndrome<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Image Source : BlogSpot<\/p>\n<p>Josh Hodgkiss, the son of Mark and Stephanie Hodgkiss is a three year old toddler who has developed an unusual genetic disorder called Smith Magenis Syndrome. Due to the disorder, Josh is unable to feel pain, does not take anything as dangerous and is wide-awake when everyone sleeps due to reversal of the hormones.<\/p>\n<p>Biting, hitting, banging the head and biting his tongue into half are some if the common things that Josh does without even the slightest feel of pain and this is what worries his parents. According to his mother, Josh has turned out to be a violent and adamant child and his behavior is completely unpredictable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ethan Mair \u2013 Craniosynosotosis<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Image Source : Metrouk2<\/p>\n<p>Cranisynosotosis is a natural birth defect characterized by the premature fusion or closing of one or may be more joints of the skull bones even before the complete formation of the baby\u2019s brain. As a result, the baby\u2019s brain undergoes improper growth and is of a weird shape.<\/p>\n<p>Ethan Mair suffered from the same disease, but was lucky enough to be treated by surgeries. The surgeons opened up Ethan\u2019s skull put it together just like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle and put it back again in place. The baby underwent five surgeries, severe loss of blood but at last won the battle and is back home now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Karren Brammer \u2013 Severely Allergic<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-101099\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2015\/08\/Karren-Brammer-\u2013-Severely-Allergic.jpg\" alt=\"Karren Brammer \u2013 Severely Allergic\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2015\/08\/Karren-Brammer-\u2013-Severely-Allergic.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2015\/08\/Karren-Brammer-\u2013-Severely-Allergic-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2015\/08\/Karren-Brammer-\u2013-Severely-Allergic-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2015\/08\/Karren-Brammer-\u2013-Severely-Allergic-390x220.jpg 390w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p><div class=\"38520354a5201685ddf480eec688e1a7\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9477973674766713\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8885944693\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>Image Source : images.cm.archant.co.uk<\/p>\n<p>Karren Brammer from Bedfordshire deserves a salute for her courage and determination to live even after suffering some of the most severe allergies in the world that include allergies towards latex, wasps, kiwi fruits and numerous medications.
