The family have set up a GoFundMe to help with Amare’s ongoing treatment, details of the page can be found here, Alabama was born with a rare condition called neurofibromatosis type 1. The condition causes Amare to have huge tumours on his face which have severely affected his vision and breathing. Due to his tumours, Amare has no vision in his left eye and limited vision in his right eye. He’s been through a lot at such a young age and has sadly experienced some bullying because of his different appearance. Kandice, Amare’s mother, took him to the park one day where he was cruelly called a ‘monster’ by some local kids and he never went back to that park again. Amare is really close with his cousins and the three of them like to get outside and play in the park together whenever they can. Born Different followed the three of them on one of their visits to a nearby park to hang out and play a little bit of football.
