She sees the nurses in the hospital almost more than her friends. It can be scary, frustrating and boring. Chloe R Fernandez knows this all too well! When she was just six years old, she was diagnosed with chronic obstructive lung disease due to underlying Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD). PCD is a genetic disorder. A body with PCD cant clear its own airway secretions. Shes faced many scary moments when she couldnt draw a breath and has endured painful and embarrassing treatments.

One of her strongest beliefs is that life is what you make it, and her most avid advice is stay faithful always. Children of all ages, grappling with any kind of illness or condition, will find both an understanding and comfortable friend in Chloe.
