The North Carolina Tar Heels football team is not just playing for victory this season. They are also playing for Tylee, a young fan battling a rare disease. Tylee, a fifth-grader from Raleigh, has been an inspiration to the team and its fans with her positive attitude and determination. She was diagnosed with a rare genetic condition called NGLY1 deficiency, which affects her ability to metabolize certain fats. Despite her challenges, Tylee has remained a devoted Tar Heels fan, attending games and cheering on her team. The team has returned the favor by dedicating their season to her and raising awareness for her condition. They have also started a fundraiser to help cover the costs of Tylee’s medical treatments.
