Albino sisters Asel and Kamila Kalaganova, born 12 years apart in Kazakhstan, defy the odds of\u00a0albinism<\/a>, a condition occurring in 1 in 3,000 to 1 in 20,000 births, depending on the country.<\/p>\n

Kamila, aged two, has an older sister, Asel, who is 14. In their family, Asel\u2019s brother Aldiyar, aged eight, has a more typical Kazakh appearance.<\/p>\n

Asel shared, \u201cPeople are surprised that we are albino people. Many people do not know what albinos are.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aiman Sarkitov, their mother, was shocked when she first saw Asel. Even the doctors initially suspected controversy, speculating about an ethnically Russian father.<\/p>\n

At ten, Asel embarked on a photo modeling career. With Kamila\u2019s arrival and captivating family photos, Asel, now a teenager with 33K followers, has generated even more attention.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I gave birth to my eldest, genetics was not so developed with us. It is developing only now,\u201d the mother noted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe doctors were shocked and thought that she was Russian. Then I started reading about this matter, I have learned that my children are albinos,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the very beginning, everyone was shocked, surprised. I did not know what to do myself, how to live,\u201d Aiman reflected. Over time, she learned that some of her ancestors also had albinism.<\/p>\n

The National Organization for Albinism and Hypopigmentation\u00a0highlights<\/a> that individuals with albinism often have fair skin, emphasizing the need to protect against sun damage to the skin and eyes. The albino sisters are well aware of this and take necessary precautions.<\/p>\n

As Asel mentioned, \u201cIf I go outside in the afternoon, then I definitely apply sunscreen, put on clothes to protect my skin, headgear or use an umbrella. In the evening, when there is almost no sun, it\u2019s much easier for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

In her youth, Asel enrolled in a school designed for handicapped children. Eventually, she transitioned to a mainstream school.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe studies perfectly well,\u201d her mother affirmed. \u201cAlbinos do not differ much from other children, only their hair, eyelashes, eyes, and skin color.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAt first, it was difficult, of course, the children stared at her. Now she feels good, we do not limit her to anything.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aiman noted her son\u2019s skin mirrored his father\u2019s, describing him as genuinely Kazakh with a dark complexion.<\/p>\n

While Aldiyar initially had no inquiries about his elder albino sisters, questions arose with the arrival of the second. He wondered, \u201cMum, why are they like that? Why am I not like them, not like my sisters?\u201d<\/p>\n

Aiman addressed her son\u2019s concerns, fostering a sense of family unity. \u201cHe realizes that people are looking at the girls, and even begins to boast, proudly telling people about his unique sisters.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
