Two Little Monkeys

Hello everyone!
I am not new to the board, but have not posted in a long while...
Since last August, I have been working on starting a non-profit organization to (hopefully) accomplish two goals:
1. Raise awareness and provide information about OBPIs
2. Raise money for the BP team at the Philadelphia Shriners Hospital where our daughter had surgery.
Well, our website finally went live last week...
www.twolittlemonkeys.org
If you get a chance, please check it out and let me know what you think. I am completely open to any questions, comments, complaints, suggestions, etc you may have. Feel free to respond to this post or email me directly.
As you will read in the About Us section, our daughter Allison suffered a brachial plexus injury to her right arm at birth. She has had one surgery to date - an arthroscopic ACR with Dr. Kozin in May of 2007. She was nine months old at the time, their youngest child to undergo this procedure, but because her glenohumeral joint was in such rapid deterioration something had to be done.
Ally is doing wonderfully today. We still have major work to do with her to help her reach more of her full-potential, but considering where she was pre-surgery, we could not be happier.
Anyway, that's a very brief version of our story...
Thank you all for reading and I hope that you enjoy looking at our website.
Sincerely,
Andrea
