Hello, my name is Jonah. I'm born with a rare form of disease called Hajdu Cheney Syndrome.
I love being in the kitchen. I am learning to read and write but I can't play with kids my age freely or run around due to my physical condition and fragile bones.
Because of my physical condition, I will definitely face issues in looking for work, in the future. My dream is to be a baker and to have my very own bakery. Mommy created this little bakery kitchen for me with hope that I will not give up chasing my dream and passion that this is something I can keep doing when I'm on my own one day.
