This just in......
Sounds like it's going national. This is what I just received from the procuder...
The story has already been fed out to all the NBC owned & operated stations across the country (or they will be getting it as soon as our group wire puts it across, sometime in the next couple days). So, you & Bradley could be appearing in Seattle, San Fran, Sarasota, and Saratoga Springs! It's up to the individual stations. Also, MSNBC could pick it up if they want. That happens frequently with some of the biggest stories we do. I'll keep my eyes open.
Holy Smokes!!!!! I'm in shock right now. It seems the station has been getting alot of feedback from the airing. To all those who called in. Sending out a big "THANK-YOU"

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.

Re: This just in......
Holy Smokes is right! YOU GO GIRL!! You are the network QUEEN!
This is just amazing. You're going to have to tell us how you made this happen. Who did you call? What did you tell them? How did you get them to agree to interview you? If you give us some hints as to how to do it, maybe more of us can try it out and this will lead to a bigger step, like Dateline or something on that scale.
This is truly great. I hope you are standing proud today! High five Allison and Bradley!

This is GREAT! Excellent job.
Perhaps a representative from San Diego can invite the local NBC affliate to the picnic on Saturday?

Barbara Walters did a program on 20/20 a few years ago. Including the video of a birth that ended in obpi. I can't remember the family name they were from Texas.

Re: This just in......
We have a video of our daughter's birth and it made me sort of sick to watch actually. I wanted to just scream, "STOP"... I do not know how my daughter will feel about seeing it. Lives can change so quickly - but I hope that she realizes that there is a reason for evreything in life and that she was meant to be a role model - probably for me! Like I always say - she is the toughest kid I know.
