This cute five-year-old danced to Swift’s “Shake It Off” to raise awareness for Dwarfism Awareness Month in October. Her name is Rilee and she has Achondroplasia, that’s why it is so important that this video goes viral so she can raise awareness for a virtually unknown disease. PLEASE SHARE!

I don’t feel that dwarfism is a disease!there’s so many other diseases they need awareness!

Dwarfism isn’t a disease and I think this shows exactly why there needs to be a little more awareness about it.

It’s more about studying the crippling conditions that acompany dwarfism.

Try buying clothes, driving a car, simplest thing use a public bathroom..dare you to stay on your knees for a whole day just in your house and yes you must reach everything with a stick that would give an accurate length for new found shortness. See how unimportant it is to have awareness for this disease/disability=operable because they have to be, other stupid people used the same thing about wheel chair access. To bad there is no pill for stupidity.

Seriously? Whether its a disease or not, its still something this little girl and many other people face. She doesn’t get to live a normal life like every other child. It doesn’t matter what diseases you think need more awareness. She and others with dwarfism deserve awareness as well. That was such a petty comment.

Achondroplasia is different than dwarfism and like many congenital syndromes there are many other medical consequences to the condition.

Julie, she is a 5 year old with dwarfism. There is a facebook page https://www.facebook.com/smilesfromRilee?ref=hl. Maybe you should do a little research before trolling people online.

You ignorant ass, she is 5yrs old who also has dwarfism. I know because I know her personally! Can’t stand people who can be so negative. This video is meant to put a smile on peoples face and also to give awareness about dwarfism. Many people just think oh they where just born little and that’s not the case at all. People who gave dwarfism face many medical,physical, and emotional issues. So yes it is something that people should be aware of!

Very cute indeed. Achondroplasia however is not a disease, it is a birth defect. Its also far from virtually unknown. In fact, the exact chomosome that causes the defect is known. There is no way to cure this, people actually grow old having this defect. Why not just share because it is cute, without playing the pity game?
LikeLike
Why not be a little kinder? It doesn’t matter how you feel or if she gets to grow old. She still doesn’t get to live a normal life and has to face obstacles people without the disorder don’t have to deal with. It’s not a pitty game, you are just plain rude.

I think it’s a gorgeous, cute way to show and encourage awareness for this illness?/ ailment? Achondroplasia too.. Keep it up ya beautiful little girl..x God Bless you sweetheart

Some of you people are the real retards. Who cares if it is a disease or a birth defect you ignorant fools. Go educate yourself and read the american journal of med…Come’ on people. This is a video about a cute beautiful little girl who is just trying to bring awareness in a cute entertaining way! Kudos for her family and the little girl for having nerve to post this around you tube. That is great for confidence! Not everyone is model figure and not everybody has a child on model magazines. So get over your self you people who are debating about her age and whether she has a disease or birth defect. She is a human being and cute as hell with a lot of confidence to credit! Now if you all can educate yourself on what is a disease and what is a birth defect…then she made her point!
