Dominic is a young 19 month old boy that looks and acts like any other 19 month old. But Dominic deals with a rare skin disease that his parents are looking for help in curing. The disease is called mastocytosis, and it causes Dominic's skin to blister along with nausea and vomiting. His parents are looking to raise money in order to travel to the National Institute of Health in Maryland. They are searching for answers and treatment to the condition.
