What is Osteogenesis Imperfecta?

Children with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a genetic bone disorder characterized by fragile bones that break easily. It is also known as “brittle bone disease.” The term
literally means “bone that is imperfectly made from the beginning of life.” A person is born with this disorder and is affected throughout his or her life time.

Fractures are difficult to predict, especially in childhood. Some occur with normal handling. Some occur spontaneously or with so little trauma that the usual signs of a fracture may not be seen and the fracture is not identified 
till some weeks or months later, when an X-ray is done for another reason.

Footsteps To Follow is a non-profit that supports children with OI, as well as other medical conditions. The proceeds from the Traveling TUTU's assist families in North Carolina with traveling expenses to and from Canada for medical treatment. For more information about OI visit www.OIF.org
