: very quiet and too himself, he can be loud and obnoxious though. He is very committed to certain things and tries to avoid all physical contact. He won't say why, but certain things will have him explain. He has always wanted to be on the football team, but his case prevents him. He does not have tons of muscle tone, but he's still hot.
: type I osteogenesis imperfecta.
Collagen is of normal quality but is produced in insufficient quantities:
* Bones fracture easily
* Slight spinal curvature not severe in aaron's case
* Loose joints not severe in aaron's case
* Poor muscle tone not severe in aaron's case
* Discolouration of the sclera (whites of the eyes), usually giving them a blue-gray color. The blue-gray color of the sclera is due to the underlying choroidal veins which show through. This is due to the sclera being thinner than normal because of the defective Type I Collagen not forming correctly.
IA and IB are defined to be distinguished by the absence/presence of dentinogenesis imperfecta (characterized by opalescent teeth; absent in IA, present in IB). Life expectancy is slightly reduced compared to the general population due to the possibility of fatal bone fractures and complications related to OI Type I such as Basilar Invagination.
