There are many diseases that alter a child's appearance, including Down syndrome, Cri-du-chat syndrome or Lejeune's syndrome, and Williams syndrome.

Each of these diseases causes specific changes in the growth and appearance of a child, and all often come with a myriad of health and developmental problems.

Does Russell silver syndrome make you picky?
My son has Russell Silver Syndrome (RSS) and is VERY picky. He eats only a handful of different foods and refuses to try most new foods unless they look like chocolate. I believe some kids with RSS seem to be hypersensitive when it comes to foods, tastes, sensations etc. Also, many people with RSS suffer from gatrointestinal issues, such as reflux, constipation and delayed gastric emptying. These things can dramatically affect the amount and the type of things they feel like eating.
