As a result, Halle Hofman has had to undergo 17 painful and time-consuming facial surgeries in her lifetime. According to the National Institute of Health's Library of Medicine's Genetics Home Reference, the chances of a child being born with Pfeiffer is one-in-one-hundred-thousand; others have reported the chances to be as high as one-in-three-hundred-thousand. In Halle's lifetime, the Hofman family have only come across one other individual with the disorder, Halle's father, Cory, 50, said. Despite the condition causing people on the street to stop and stare at her - something Halle admits used to make her very uncomfortable - the youngster hopes that her positive approach to dealing with the syndrome will inspire others. *Please contact video@catersnews.com to licence this content* Company Information: Caters Clips is owned and operated by Caters News Agency Ltd, an international multimedia content provider.
