About Kassiha's Disorder 

 

Kassiha suffers from Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome, a rare disease that usually affects a single extremity with a port-wine stain, vein abnormalities and hyper-growth.  Kassiha suffers with a severely affected right leg.  The pictures below highlight the deformity, which leaves Kassiha prone to infection, in pain and unable use the limb, causing little mobility.  Despite the size of her right leg, Kassiha is very small for her age, and her body is not absorbing nutrition properly.
