Hirschsprung's disease is a blockage of the large intestine due to improper muscle movement in the bowel. It is a congenital condition, which means it is present from birth. Thoug virtually unknown, it is quite common (1 in every 5,000 births), but many doctors are inexperienced with the disease and misdiagnose it. Hirchsprung's usually requires surgery, after which sufferers can live relatively normal lives.
This bracelet is made for little Bryer, who recently had a great check-up with all positive news. Proceeds from the sale of this bracelet will go to the International Foundation for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (IFFGD), where research on Hirschsprung's is ongoing.
It is made with beautiful blue beads, sterling silver endcaps and a sparkly blue awareness ribbon charm.
The spiral crochet technique enables enough ‘give’ so that you may roll the bracelet right over your hand onto your wrist. Extremely comfortable, with no clasp to fumble with.
Average length 7.5 inches to roll over your average hand. Smaller and larger sizes available to accommodate diversity in hand size.
