Pursuing Passion Despite Marfan Syndrome
People with Marfan syndrome look taller and thinner because their bones grow longer than usual. It comes from a genetic issue that affects their connective tissue, including the blood vessels, heart, eyes, and skin.
Singer-songwriter and musician Bradford Cox, who is best known as the lead singer and guitarist of the indie rock band Deerhunter is one of those who experience the syndrome. He has been open with his state and also serves as an inspiration to others to pursue their passion regardless of any condition.
