ATLEY'S STORY
For Atley, precision healthcare meant using genome sequencing to diagnose a potentially deadly heart condition, Brugada syndrome. Now, doctors can monitor Atley before any serious issues occur – and today, he’s doing well.
![Atley](/-/media/images/campaign/_global/stories/patient_atley.jpg?h=550&w=600&la=en&hash=8CB2B4BC39E2882493E91D6E0A78836B)
Atley, 8, Brugada Syndrome patient
Atley and his family are living proof of the power of Precision Child Health. Genomic sequencing revealed Atley’s rare heart condition, only discovered in families when someone dies. Because of this, they found Atley’s dad had the same condition. Now they both have pacemakers. His dad also had an internal defibrillator implanted. Monthly donor support is helping create more success stories like this.

GIVE FOR ATLEY
Atley has Brugada syndrome – a rare heart condition that his doctors monitor via his pacemaker. However, Atley’s diagnosis doesn’t hold him back from just being a kid: he loves superheroes, trying new foods and is learning the ukulele.
