Baby Abigail Rose Beutler, suffers from a rare condition known as Potter's syndrome. Potter's syndrome is the primarily problem for kidney failure, whereas the kidney fails to fully develop when the baby is growing in the womb. It occurs because of the lack of amniotic fluid which is needed to help circulate. It also helps baby properly develop his or her bones and lungs, andhelps the baby keep a constant temperature throughout their body. Potters syndrome is typical shown in the babies facial appearance.
Baby Abigail was born on July 15. 2013, 2 months premature, she was about 2 pounds and 12 ounces. Abigail was born without kidneys and should be given a daily treatment, in the long run she will need a kidney transplant.
