EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures the essence of a young boy living with Haemophilia, an inherited blood disorder that affects his daily life. With short blonde hair and closed eyes, he lies on his side in a domestic room, surrounded by pillows stained with splatters of blood. The illustration technique used adds to the historical feel of this image, taken in Paris around 1890. The suffering and danger faced by individuals with Haemophilia is evident in the expression on this boy's face. His pain is palpable as he battles against a condition where the clotting factor necessary for normal blood coagulation is absent. It is heartbreaking to think that his mother, unaffected herself, passed down this illness to her male offspring who have a fifty per cent chance of inheriting it. This photograph not only serves as a reminder of the hardships endured by those afflicted with haemophilia but also highlights advancements made in healthcare and medicine since its capture over a century ago. It allows us to reflect on how far we have come in understanding and treating such conditions. As we gaze upon this image, let us honor the courage and resilience displayed by individuals like this young boy throughout history who faced immense challenges due to their health conditions. May it serve as a testament to our ongoing commitment towards improving lives through medical progress and compassion for those affected by rare diseases like haemophilia.
