My mom & dad say that I am their little miracle. Did you know that you and everyone who is helping me is actually a big part of making my miracle come true?  It is because of you that I keep making progress.

I was born December 16, 2004 and because the cord was around my neck, I was not breathing at birth...  But, I was given a second chance at an incredible life and took my first breath.  My parents did not know what this lack of oxygen during my delivery would ultimately mean to me, but they would learn very quickly about the severe injury to my brain. When I was 4 months old, they were told that I was blind and had multiple health challenges. About a year later, they were told I had Cerebral Palsy and may never walk.  This is where our incredible journey begins...   (Read more about my story here...)

I have recently been accepted into a Duke University study on children with Cerebral Palsy, which includes an infusion of my own cord blood stem cells (my parents banked my cord blood when I was born -- how cool is that!). I am so excited about the possibilities. I leave for Duke University on May 23, 2009 and with faith, hope and prayers, my parents are optimistic this will help me to get started down the road to healing.  Do you want to know what I am hoping for?  I am hoping for improved vision, the ability to talk, and to learn to walk.  Did you know I am 4 years old now?  Can you imagine how much I have to say, and how cool it will be to run with my classmates on the playground?? 

My re-infusion will be on Tuesday, May 26, 2009 and my mom and dad are asking everyone to say lots of prayers for me on that day.  Can you add me to your prayer list on that day, and the many days that follow?  I heard my mom say that they are praying for a miracle.
