Charlotte is a two-year-old primitive dwarf girl who lives with her family in a small village in the wetlands of Papua New Guinea. Since she was born, the family has noticed that Charlotte is not developing normally like other babies her age. She cannot stand or walk, and can only sit or lie down.

Charlotte’s family took her to the hospital and medical professionals diagnosed her with a rare condition called “spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita” (SEDC). This is an inherited disease caused by a genetic mutation that causes abnormal growth of bones in the body, especially in the joints.

Doctors have said that Charlotte will not be able to walk and will need to use a wheelchair to get around. However, her family does not accept that and is determined to seek help. They took Charlotte to a non-profit organization called “Little People of America” and thanks to that, she was treated in the US.

After undergoing a series of surgeries and treatments in the US, Charlotte was able to walk with the help of a special shoe frame. She has become a living monument to people with rare diseases and has become a hope for other families and children around the world.

Charlotte is currently studying and living a full life with her family, and is seen as a role model for perseverance and effort to overcome life’s difficulties.
