He was born healthy and led an active lifestyle. But at the age of 8-and-a-half, something changed. Doctors don't know why, but Joshua Wooten suddenly goes into respiratory failure. Can doctors save him? Can they find the cause of his sudden breathing problems?
His diagnosis is Late onset Central Hypoventilation Syndrome with Hypothalamic Dysfunction. The disorder has a new name - ROHHAD (Rapid-onset Obesity with Hypothalamic dysfunction, Hypoventilation and Autonomic Dysregulation).
The true story takes place in 2005 near the Texas city of San Antonio, in Cibolo.
