The Atlas Story
Little Atlas has truly held the world on his shoulders. Since he was five weeks old, he has endured seizures, brain hemorrhages, emergency brain surgery, hydrocephalus and more challenges in his first year than than anyone should in a lifetime. Then, a month before COVID-19 hit the United States, Atlas was diagnosed with an ultra rare and terminal genetic brain condition called Alexander’s Disease (AxD), the result of a spontaneous mutation in his DNA. Through it all, Atlas has become a symbol for medical freedom in America and the pursuit of “quality of life.” Atlas continues to inspire all who know his joy for life, endurance and strength. And, mos of all, he reminds all of us, that love and freedom are always worth fighting for.
