ELIZABETH - 9 YEARS OLD
Retrun to 22q StoriesYou are here
Elizabeth was born in 2004 with a low birth weight and eating issues. She was listed as a failure to thrive. We visited many doctors over the years since she was just over a year old. The doctors kept telling me that I was over reacting. We finally received her diagnosis the spring of 2009. She is about to start 3rd grade, is a natural in the water (to a point), loves the go-cart, and dances in the Ballerina Dreams class for girls with special needs. She can be the sweetest person in the world and loves to make everyone happy. Everyone is her friend and loves to attend church.
