The post features a video of Louise, an infant with albinism, enjoying her mother's singing of 'Amazing Grace' in their indoor home.

Louise is a sweet little baby that loves to hear her mom sing “Amazing Grace.” She is also a beautiful little girl that has albinism because of which Louise can’t see well. This video is short and only gives you a glimpse of this mother’s relationship with her daughter.

Albinism. org describes what having it entails: people with albinism have little or no pigment in their eyes, skin, or hair. They have inherited altered genes that do not make the usual amounts of a pigment called melanin. This inherited condition effects 1 in 17,000 people in the US of any race. While effecting pigmentation, it also is linked to vision and skin problems.
