Florida Hospital Patient Writes Inspirational Book about Embracing Differences

At only 13-years-old, Izzy Hadala is on a mission to empower kids with physical differences, just like her. Since 1st grade, Izzy has given a speech on the first day of school every year to educate her classmates on her physical disability. Now, she is hoping to spread her message even further with her book, The First Day Speech. Izzy was born with Ectodermal Dysplasia, or lobster claw syndrome, which halted the development of her teeth, hands and feet. Dr. Raymund Woo, medical director of pediatric orthopedics at Florida Hospital for Children, has been treating Izzy since she was a little girl.
