Krabbe disease is a rare autosomal recessive disease, in which there is deficiency in glucocerebrosidase enzyme and the accumulation of toxic myelin breakdown product inside cells. This results in progressive neurodegeneration in which early symptoms include vision problems, and balance issues. As the disease progresses, there may be inability to move, speak, or breathe. Most people with Krabbe disease die within two years of diagnosis.
