I am the Momma of 8 children. Seven here on earth and 1 precious little Angel in Heaven. My children range in age from 2 months to 25 years. My 6 year old was born with a laundry list of complex medical conditions. He has Trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome), a rare brain malformation, which resulted from a mutation of the PAX-6 gene, bilateral anophthalmia, which means that he was born without any eyes, so he is totally blind. At the age of 2 1/2 months old he had to have a tracheostomy to help aid in his breathing. He is hearing impaired, with normal hearing in his left ear and has profound deafness in his right. At 3 1/2 years he had surgery to have a Mic-Key button placed in his stomach (feeding Tube), which is mainly used to give him his medications. He also has insulin dependant diabetes and wears an insulin pump, which gives him a continuous dose of insulin. Even with his many dis"abilities," including being globally developmentally delayed, he has accomplished more than anyone would have ever believed that he could. Join us in our journey living with a Dis"Abled" child....

24th Annual Family Teacher Deaf-Blind Conference

We attended the 24th Annual Family - Teacher Deaf-Blind Conference in Greensboro N.C. June 24th - 27th. While Floyd and I were attending the conference meetings, Timmy on the other hand had fun, Fun, FUN with his old and new friends.

Here are a few pictures that I took at the conference. More are to come later. We should be receiving a CD of pictures that were taken during the day of all of the children enjoying the daily activities.
