Sturge-Weber Syndrome, or SWS, is a rare disorder that’s present at birth, and children born with the condition have port-wine stain birthmarks, which tend to occur on the face.

A spotlight was shined on the condition after photos of Matilda Callaghan, 5, went viral on Facebook. The U.K. girl has “polka-dot” birthmarks covering her face and the right side of her body.
