A single mother has no regrets about keeping her daughter despite passing on a rare debilitating illness. Dorothy Hohl was told there was a 50/50 chance that she would pass on her osteogenesis imperfecta – or brittle bones – to her daughter Savannah but decided to carry on her pregnancy. Savannah's father refused to be a part of her life and Dorothy was shunned by her family - but has never regretted the decision. The disorder comes from a defective gene and means the body does not produce enough collagen leading bones to break and fracture more easily. As a result of breaks and fractures throughout their lives both mother and daughter are wheelchair bound and stand at 4'2''.
