A proud father has terrified parents worldwide by sharing photos of his baby daughter in death-defying situations. Stephen Crowley, 32 from Dublin, Ireland, shares photoshopped images of his 18-month-old daughter Hannah in very precarious positions, sitting on vertiginous bridges, climbing up ladders and armed with sharp knifes - and all apparently unsupervised.
Hannah, the star of her father's photography, has a very rare immune disorder called Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). Little Hannah spent a full six months of her first year of life in hospital, receiving chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant, which her father said is the only possible cure for the disease.
HLH is a life-threatening condition in which immune cells do not work properly and therefore fail to destroy infected or damaged cells as they should. This overstimulates the immune system which can then damage the patient’s own tissues and organs, including the bone marrow, the liver and the brain.
'Because we missed out on so much normal stuff that first year, we take tons of photos now that we're able to do normal things out of isolation,' Mr Crowley said.
He said that his daughter's condition has thankfully improved.
