Harrison was survived by his parents and his two siblings.
If you’re unfamiliar with INAD, according to Frontiers in Genetics wrote, “Infantile Neuroaxonal Dystrophy (INAD) is a rare neurodegenerative disease that often cuts short the life span of a child to 10 years. With a typical onset at 6 months of age, INAD is characterized by regression of acquired motor skills, delayed motor coordination, and eventual loss of voluntary muscle control. Biallelic mutations in the PLA2G6 gene have been identified as the most frequent cause of INAD.”
“The onset of symptoms generally occurs between 6 months and 3 years of age. Before that time, infants develop normally. The first symptom of INAD may be the slowing of the attainment of normal developmental milestones or regression in developmental milestones. Trunk hypotonia, strabismus, and nystagmus are early symptoms of the disease”.
After the announcement of the heartbreaking news, tons of followers sent prayers and condolences to the mom of three and her family. Furthermore, she also shared updates on her daughter, Riley, who suffered from the same condition by revealing that Riley too was not doing great.
Whitney launched a GoFundMe page in probably 2018 for her children’s cause. In there ,she stated that their oldest daughter grew up with the siblings being the center of attention.
Whitney wrote, “And our oldest daughter is growing up with her siblings being the center of attention. Not because they’re the favorites. But because rushing to their side to suction them when they choke usually takes precedence over casual interactions. She’s 15 and we feel like we’re losing her because we rarely have time to be a family. I’m just asking for some help so we can make things a little easier for our children and for the people who take care of them.”
Whitney had Natalie from her previous relationship. Natalie turned 16 on 20 April 2021.
