After Taylor Naggs-Aquino was born she was diagnosed with a very rare genetic disease called PCH. Ponto Cerebellar Hypoplasia, in layman's terms, is a gene mutation that does not allow the cerebellum part of the brain to develop. The cerebellum is the part of your brain that controls all of your motor skills.
As Taylor gets older she has special needs: There is equipment such as special chairs, gait trainers, light boards, etc. that would make this little girl's life more manageable. Unfortunately, the cost of this special equipment is well beyond her parents' means.
Family, friends, and loved ones will be hosting a benefit on September 1, 2012. There will be a Golf Outing at the Pine Hills Golf Club in Ottawa, IL, beginning at 12pm.
