Meet Andre
Our story began on 17 July 2011. My son Andre was born at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA. My pregnancy was unremarkable as my doctor never saw any problem with the health of Andre and myself.
"A chain of different specialists visited Andre during the next two weeks but none had been able to recognize a pyridoxine deficiency."
