Where do I begin?...My life was forever changed when we received this wonderful gift of love...
OUR NATALIA... while all my children are amazing, this little one has helped me to live what I do believe is my life mission. Helping others to Embrace these lives...for as little or as long as we are blessed to have them on this earth.
I share this photo of Natalia with her cleft lip as I loved how she arrived. So pure, so unexpected, so broken, so unique, so worthy of loving and living. She is a gift to my life, our marriage, our family.
I hope you'll enjoy hearing from time to time about our Trisomy 13 - Patau syndrome journey.

| Natalia 5years old - Full Trisomy 13 - Patau Syndrome - Kindergarden at Blind Children's Learning Center, Tustin, California http://blindkids.org (*I highly recommend this Early Intervention Program for the Visually Impaired)
*At birth we were told of the Causes of Trisomy 13. We were told the risk factors, prognosis, and life expectancy. We chose medical treatment, looking at each individual medical symptom. Choosing to treat the symptoms not the syndrome.
One day at a time, we have Triumphed over Trisomy 13! We've added our list of Medical Surgery Interventions to the SOFT Trisomy Surgery Registry
SOFT has been supporting Trisomy Families for 33 + Plus years
