Just a day after Kylie launched the campaign, she posted the first story about a girl suffering from Pfieffer Syndrome, "a genetic disorder where the bones in [her] face don't really know how to fuse correctly so part of [her] jaw is really small." The girl whose name is Renee DuShane said that she didn't have many issues with bullying despite the disorder which made her forehead wider than that of many people.

"I went to school with all the same kids all the way through high school. Right around senior year, I started getting very anxious about having to explain my condition to all of the new people I would meet in college. I started going on Tumblr and saw lots of profiles of positive, confident people," Renee said of what inspired her to upload her photos to the social media "even with insecurities."

Renee believed "loving is always going to be a better place than hating." At the end of the note, Kylie invited her followers to visit Renee's Instagram page. The 18-year-old model concluded the story, "She's showing the world #IAmMoreThan my forehead. I love you Renee! She is so awesome & inspiring. Renee taught ME that #IAmMoreThan the negative comments that I read."

#Day1 - Renee DuShane (@ALittlePieceofInsane) a 21 year old college student who was born with #PfiefferSyndrome. Renee described it as �a genetic disorder where the bones in my face don�t really know how to fuse correctly so part of my jaw is really small. I had to have surgery when I was born so that my brain could grow.� Renee is so strong willed and a super intelligent girl who told me that while growing up she never had many issues with bullying. "I went to school with all the same kids all the way through high school. Right around senior year, I started getting very anxious about having to explain my condition to all of the new people I would meet in college. I started going on Tumblr and saw lots of profiles of positive, confident people� that inspired her to start sharing her photos even with her insecurities. �It�s so hard to keep myself from responding to the negative comments,� she told me. �Even harder is keeping my friends from getting angry.� It's so important to have a great group of friends. Renee also told me about the tattoo she recently got of her life motto: Stay Strong, Always Love. �Loving is always going to be a better place than hating,� she shared. Check out Renee�s Instagram @ALittlePieceofInsane - she�s showing the world #IAmMoreThan my forehead. I love you Renee! She is so awesome & inspiring. Renee taught ME that #IAmMoreThan the negative comments that I read.
