My friend's son has this illness. I've seen how horrible it really is. My prayers are with Samantha, and the findings of a cure.

Your daughter is beautiful. My husband had cysinosis. He passed away in 2005 at 36 years old. He had only started cystinamine therapy about a year before he passed away. The disease was not at all treatable when he was diagnosed. It sounds like you already have her meds under control. Best of luck to you and your family.
