Heartbroken family demands change at special needs school after their daughter, 4, dies when feeding tube got dislodged - The family of Faith Johnson has demanded accountability from Frederick Public ...

Her family believes a medical emergency at the school led to her death. Faith suffered from Cockayne syndrome, a rare genetic disorder, and relied on a feeding tube for nutrition and medication.

They include xeroderma pigmentosum, which is a condition that makes people more susceptible to skin cancer, and Cockayne syndrome, which can affect human growth and development, lead to impaired ...
