Colin Farrell shows off James to the world.
Posted on October 16, 2007 
Our hearts go out to Colin Farrell in this case. He has gone public with the revelation that defective genes have visited his next generation. His son, James, has Angelman Syndrome, a rare form of cerebral palsy.
Colin is not asking for pity but wants to a form a bridge of inspiration to parents who struggle with their kids with similar medical conditions. He is proud of James’ achievement over his speech impediments, developmental delays and seizures, which are typical of sufferers of cerebral palsy.
James struggles with basic functions like walking and talking, since his birth 4 years ago. He just took his first few walking steps at the age of 4. Colin attributes James for bringing his mother, Colin’s ex-girlfriend, Kim Bordenave, and his father closer together as friends.
Colin is now with his current girlfriend, Muireann, but devotes quality time to James too. He is one of the better fathers in our gallery of Children/Celebrity Kids.

The condition is not a form of cerebral palsy and often can be mistaken for an Autism but neither are Angelman Syndrome. Angelman Syndrome is a rare chromosome disorder (affecting the 15th chromosome) and again is NOT cerebral palsy!
