She delights the world with her dance skills
Six-year-old girl Audrey Nethery suffers from a rare disease called Diamond Blackfan Anemia. But nothing can stop them from pursuing their favorite hobby: dancing.
A few days ago, Twitter user Scout Hoffmeister from Kentucky posted a video that is now around the world. On display are her sister crew and little Audrey Nethery. The clip has since been retweeted over 8, 000 times. On Audrey's Facebook page, the video has been over 16, 000 times. Obviously, the performance of Audrey and her friend on the hip-hop song "Hit The Quan" by iHeartMemphis is just great and instantly puts you in a good mood.

But Audrey Nethery was a little internet celebrity even before the release of this dance video. On her Facebook page "Audrey's DBA Photo Booth", photos and videos of the girl suffering from the very rare disease Diamond Blackfan Anemia are shared . Using her Facebook page, Audrey and her parents want to raise awareness of the disease and raise funds for research. Your page has already been tagged by more than 344, 000 people.
The body of people with Diamond Blackfan anemia can not independently produce red blood cells. They either rely on blood transfusions or take steroids to help their bodies form red blood cells. The latter is the case with six-year-old Audrey. Consequences of Diamond Blackfan Anemia, also called Diamond Blackfan Syndrome, may be abnormalities such as a cleft lip and palate or a small skull. 50 percent of those affected are short-lived. In addition, heart defects can occur. In addition, mental development may be delayed in children. The disease is diagnosed mostly in the first six months of life.
However, according to the DBA Foundation, people with Diamond Blackfan anemia can have a long and fulfilling life. Audrey is the best proof. The little girl shows us how much she enjoys life and that her illness can not stop her. A good dancer is the girl who is a big Zumba fan, on top of that. In the video below, Audrey can be seen at the Florida International Zumba Convention.
