Natasha at age 4


Natasha at age 4 before her diagnosis. You can see the rash deveoping on her cheeks.


This is Natasha at age 4 1/2 which clearly shows the side effects of steroids. Her weight went from 17kgs to 26kgs in 5 months.


The facial rash across both cheeks and at the corner of her eyes. Her ears are also red and itchy.


This pic is Alex 2 and Tasha 4 1/2, next is Alex 3 and Tasha 5 1/2, next is Tasha 7 and Alex 4 1/2, the last is Alex 5 1/2 and Tasha 8. Because of the steroids, Natasha's little sister is rapidly catching up to her in height.


This is Natasha in Sept 2003 when she was off steroids prior to her latest relapse. Her face shape is more defined.
