Hey, I'm Tracey married to a wonderful man by the name of Brian and we have a precious 3 year old daughter named Shelby Lynn. We reside in Waynesboro,GA. My days are filled with joyous moments spent with Shelby. My husband and little girl are my life. I am a devoted Christian, wife, mother,volunteer for the Center for New Beginnings- www.nbeginnings.org (our local non-profit Christian Center for the Special Needs) and also volunteer 1 morning a week at our Church's BiblePlaySchool Program. At the Center, I serve as the Parent Support Coordinator providing resourceful information to other parents as well as hosting monthly Parent Support Group meetings where we as parents can come together to get away from life's everyday struggles as being parents of special needs children for just a brief moment.

Little More about Me........

 My daughter and I both have a trach. We both have a rare syndrome, Osteopathia Striata with Cranial Scelrosis. This syndrome has several different names and variations. Abnormalities include: severe obstructive sleep apnea (which causes us to be tracheostomy dependent), very small nasal cavity/passages, hearing impairment, cleft palate, GI issues, very large bones (facial structure issues), dental issues, developmentally delayed,etc. Life span is normal there is no cure, and only a handful of people worldwide with it. I have had my trach for about 25 yrs and have done well if I have to say so myself. Shelby received her trach in 2006, she continues to thrive each day. I look forward to meeting others with similar backgrounds and hope to shed a little bit of hope and inspiration to others.  Please visit Shelby's page for current family updates: www.carepages.com page id: babyshelby

I was hit by a drunk driver head on going 80 in 1974 and am a disabled vet, age 55, a long time writer, just a quiet soul. I try to help everyone I can. Because I have had IBS for 6 months my diet changed drastically and I hope my Cancer risks have been lowered! All one can do is try to eat healthy and hope for the best! I am for the most part pain free, having to wear 2 back supports 24-7 , but I am happy and that is all that counts. I wish you all a great day. If you like ghost stories feel free to drop by my author website at www.whendarknesscomes.com

 

If you have lower back pain, believe me, you do NOT have to accept that back pain. The 2 $25.00 back supports I wear help me to escape 90% or more back pain. I wear them 24-7 and hardly notice them. Mine came from wal-mart and you may only have to wear one, and perhaps your life will be better. I hope it will. If anyone would like to learn more about what you can do to help prevent Cancer, please e-mail me. I can e-mail you several files and you can be much more informed as to all the little things that will make a big difference in your health.

When I  was 17 I  gave birth to my son and had numerous problems while giving birth I  had a 10%  chance of survival when I  did survive they told me I  would never walk again so I  pushed myself hard and did but I  had a relaspe about 4 years ago and now walk with a walker again  I  also have brain damage from the same situation
