Neonatal Hemochromatosis

Hi this is what my son passed from its very rare and fatal condition.......

Neonatal Hemochromatosis (NH) is a rare condition which occurs while the baby is developing in the mother's womb. Toxic levels of iron accumulate in the liver as well as other places in the unborn baby's body. NH looks very much like another condition known as "Hereditary Hemochromatosis" (HH) also known as iron overload disease which is genetic (see www.americanhs.org for more information on Hereditary Hemochromatosis) NH is not considered to be "genetic".
Unfortunately, Neonatal Hemochromatosis is usually deadly to the fetus (unborn baby) or if born alive, kills the baby in the first weeks or months of the baby's life due to complications of the toxic amounts of iron in the baby's body. A liver transplant can, in some cases, save the baby's life and/or a combination of special drugs. Occasionally, a baby will "overcome" the effects of NH and survive without a liver transplant. It is imperative that the baby is treated by physicians familiar with the disease or physicians willing to consult with experts familiar with this disease. A woman may have one or more healthy children in her life before having an NH baby. A woman can have a healthy child after an NH baby, however, the risk of a woman having another NH baby after having her first NH baby is greater than 80%.
