A young Scots girl suffering from a ‘ Alzheimer's style’ illness has been left non-verbal as her harrowing condition continues to progress.
Sophia Scott, 11, was diagnosed with Sanfilippo Syndrome in 2015 after parents Darren, 43 and Amanda, 45, noticed she was having developmental issues.
The rare genetic condition, also known as Mucopolysaccharidosis type III (MPS III), causes fatal brain damage and is a type of childhood dementia.
