A remarkable attribute few people possess is having a dream and following it despite the many obstacles that life can throw at us. Hannah was born with a rare bone condition, a genetic illness that causes bone weakness. Her life has always been a tightrope walk, but this brave girl has achieved her makeup ambitions and touched everyone’s hearts, inspiring us all to be warriors and never give up.

A rare genetic disease affecting her bones

Hannah Tyre is a 27-year-old girl living in Georgia, USA. Like every girl her age, Hannah enjoys a variety of hobbies, and makeup is among them. But, unlike others, she leads a unique lifestyle, and her everyday activities may have to be altered due to a rare genetic disease that has affected her since she was a newborn, osteogenesis imperfecta.

“I literally just say, like, I have brittle bones disease, meaning that my bones just break very easily,” Hannah says, attempting to describe her rare condition.

Osteogenesis prevents the body from building strong bones; it comes in many forms, and each can present its own challenges. The signs and symptoms of this disorder might be mild to severe, but it can affect our whole life and how we conduct everyday tasks.

Hannah, and many others like her, require specific equipment for their condition, allowing them to accomplish everyday things. Hannah says, “The biggest challenge in my disease is always trying to look for places that are handicapped accessible.”

Hannah’s life may be relatively normal because her family supports her and has been by her since birth. “I need help to get dressed during the day and to get in and out of my wheelchair or bathing,” she continued, “sometimes it frustrates me I can’t be more independent.”

Hannah’s mother is an important figure in her life, and she has given her all to her daughter since they first learned of her condition. Cindy, Hannah’s mother, recalls how young she was when she gave birth to Hannah and how horrified she was to learn that her child had fractured bones.

Through her love for makeup, she’s reached millions of people.

Despite the difficulties posed by her disabilities, Hannah was persistent in pursuing her makeup passion, enabling her to run her own social media pages and reach millions of people. Since she started making videos, Hannah has been able to get into the hearts of all who watch her.

Other than bringing attention to her disability, Hannah serves as an example of how you don’t have to look a certain way to feel beautiful because you have to discover your beauty. She said, “Blogging has definitely given me more confidence, making me realize I can do many more things, and it improved my self-esteem.”

Hannah may struggle to get by every day, and even something as simple as sneezing can be critical. Showing off her makeup to her fans while wearing it, on the other hand, has helped her overcome these obstacles and find solace in it. “I don’t think that I’m any different from anybody else, people with disabilities are not different.”

Hannah said, “I wanted to show people with disabilities that you can do this too,” She stated. “I think it’s really awesome that the beauty industry is becoming more diverse and really showcasing different beauty, and I’m proud to somewhat have a little part to do with it.”

When you’re feeling down, who do you turn to for comfort, and where do you find it?

What a wonderful and strong young woman to have the courage to expose her uniqueness to a world that can sometimes be difficult for the best of us to deal with and for her to achieve success in sharing herself and her love of make-up, is so uplifting and heartwarming. I love that she has had success with her blogging and make-up tutorials and created connections with people all over bringing awareness to her condition which is so helpful to others like her as well. Her and her family must be some very special souls to give of themselves so openly and I wish her the very best life has to offer her as she continues on her journey.
