Asa was born on 2nd May 1991, and like his older sister, seemed a bright bouncing baby full of life, vitality and vigour. However after only a few short weeks it became apparent that Asa had some sort of deficiency with his eyesight, and he was unable to focus on any specific object for even the shortest length of time. As a precautionary measure Asa was referred to a specialist, and having undergone a seies of consultations and tests at Great Ormond Street Hospital was diagnosed with a rare genetic disease.
But to know Asa is to love him; his energy, his love of life and his almost constant optimistic outlook on everything around him is an inspiration.
More than anything, Asa is unique.
