amarie is a model!

Post by Nicole »

Amarie was chosen to be on a package of diapers last fall and they have finally hit the press! We received a sample of the package today! The picture is wonderful! I am so excited she was chosen even though her arm is in a rather strange position to the unknowing public! It is great to know that not everyone believes models have to be prefect in every way!

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.

Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: Hi! I am Laura, the mom of Tyler, who has a ROBPI. I've been a member of this site since 1998 and owe a great deal to the wonderful people in the UBPN community who have helped us along the way get what we needed to get done for Tyler. Tyler is now 14 years old and in the 9th grade. He's a super bright kid and loves his video games. Tyler had the mod quad surgery with Dr. Shenaq shortly before he passed. That was his first and only surgery. Now that he is older he is requesting additional surgery. He'd like to be able to supinate. Our goal is for Summer 2013.

Way cool!!! Tyler did a catalog spot for Gymboree when he was a baby. He was the cutest baby model in the entire catalog! I don't have to buy diapers anymore, but I'm gonna go down that isle just to take a look!
