United Brachial Plexus Network, Inc.

My son Emilio is 2 months old. He just had his nerve graft surgery on April 25 2002. The surgery lasted 16 hours. He is now in a sling. Im looking for a pen pal for him so when he is older he can talk to someone who knows what he is going through. Hopefully he will have this friend for a very long time and possibly meet. I would also like to talk to a parent that has gone through or will go through what we have gone through. I guess I need as much support as he does. If I dont have the support or knowledge I will be unable to pass it to him. So if anyone out there is interested in making new friends please do not hesitate to email us. albita@interactive.rogers.com

Have you tried posting to the General message board? A lot of parents of babies/children with BPIs participate there.
