Most children wish for presents, candy and a party for their fifth birthday.
But all Eliza O'Neill wants is the chance to live.
The youngster, from Columbia, South Carolina, suffers from Sanfilippo Syndrome (Type A), a genetic and terminal disorder that means she lacks an enzyme vital for normal cellular function.
The condition eventually causes a lethal buildup of a toxic material - heparin sulfate - leading to learning disabilities and behavioral problems. Victims typically die before they are out of their teens.

Oh shite! Maybe my kid has this too... he ALWAYS wears his tshirts inside out and backward.

I can't watch the video... but is there a treatment/cure they're attempting to provide?

Sad. These stories piss me off. Little kids suffering really hurts to read and imagine.
