Y'all know that sweet little girl with Progeria named Adalia Rose, right?! Aw, she's adorable, even with her disease whcih causes rapid aging in children! Some nice person (or people) decided to throw together an art exhibit and auction in her honor to raise money for the research of Progeria.
Here are some awesome links pertaining to this blog post, that I think you should check out (Well... Only if you want to, and only if you are interested... I'm not going to make you do it)!
An article on the art exhibit and auction that I read: http://austinstylefile.tumblr.com/post/33112709687/in-honor-of-adalia-rose-abstract-austin-art-show-and

I simply love and adore her! I think it is sad and tragic that an innocent child can be infected with such a harmful and potentially deadly disease! It makes me so sad to hear all these stories of children having horrible, traumatic things happening to them that make them mentally grow up quicker than they normally probably should have (Believe me... I know just what that is like. I was one of those children who had to grow up in a situation that made me mentally grow up faster than a kid should have to!)... But to actually be a kid and have a disease that PHYSICALLY ages you rather quickly and potentially causes you to have life-threatening health problems... Now, that's tragic!
My praises go out to Adalia, her loved ones, and to all the artists and buyers that contributed to this exhibit/auction!
