- 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.

Hi
I am Kathleen robpi and 65 well just 65 this week.
I live in New York and found ubpn 5 years ago in Dec. It was a life changing moment for me.
I am now UBPN Secretary.
I can't tell you all how much the website changed my life and helped with health issues I did not realize were related to my arm.
Glad to meet you all!
Carolyn is right when she says our sense of humor helped us.
