Thank u everyone im so happy for our family n for my lil girl vivian who is RBPI God sure did answer all our prayers I hope everyone gets to read this....here i go....

1 Week before my water broke with Brandon my daughter raised her R injured arm and said with tears in her eyes mommy i want this off, mind u she is only 3 years old...
So with tears in my eyes i look back not believing what she said to me so i ask what off honey she says this and points to her injured arms scar holding back the tears i explained how some of us has scars on the inside n some are just on the outside i tried to explain that things might get better in time she is starting to realize she is different....

So when i went in to surgery to have Brandon i just kept thinking bout my lil princess n i was so scared but she helped me make the best dicition n so did my husband....
So the Dr came in before i decided id do the c section n said ok u r doing this vaginal i am going to warn u i will do what i have to do to get him out i will break his clavicle i started crying than god sent a message i started gushin blood cause the Internal fetal momitor messed up the placenta so touchin thought id share luv u all.

Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: LOBPI. I am 77 yrs old and never had a name for my injuries until 2004 when I found UBPN at age 66.

My injuries are: LOBPI on upper body and Cerebrael Palsy on the lower left extremities. The only intervention I've had is a tendon transplant from my left leg to my left foot to enable flexing t age 24 in 1962. Before that, my foot would freeze without notice on the side when wearing heels AND I always did wear them at work "to fit in" I also stuttered until around age 18-19...just outgrew it...no therapy for it. Also suffered from very very low self esteem; severe Depression and Anxiety attacks started at menopause. I stuffed emotions and over-compensated in every thing I did to "fit in" and be "invisible". My injuries were Never addressed or talked about until age 66. I am a late bloomer!!!!!

I welcome any and all questions about "My Journey".
There is NO SUCH THING AS A DUMB QUESTION.

Hey,
It's me... Breonna. Now you can show vivian your scar and tell her that you have one just like she does. :) Brandon is so cute. April 2nd is our date. So scared, but if you can do it so can I.
