Zach with his dog Carmen in his home. He has had a very long year with the effects of his progeria having made themselves felt more than ever in his tiny 10-year-old body. — TNS
Zach Pickard has had a rough, sometimes physically painful, year. But because he is Zach, a tiny person with an outsize personality, a quick wit and the unflagging devotion of a new dog who is bigger than he is, you wouldn’t know it.
