Natalia in a quick 9 photos sharing what is possible with good medical care. Medically treating what we could to help Natalia live comfortably within this trisomy 13 syndrome. I was told by her first teacher, that "Natalia was the most well adjusted child she's ever seen, given all her limitations."
I think its all about attitude. She awakes happy and so starts our day.
Full of Love and JOY. I am too Blessed to be Stressed and have an Attitude of Gratitude for this entire journey. I accept it all knowing God will continue to shower graces upon us as we continue to Sing Glorious Songs of Praise for her life. Natalia like all these Trisomy 13 kids are Miracles in Progress. Our only job is to love them unconditionally and celebrate each wonderful milestone.

Natalia has full, complete trisomy 13, also called Patau Syndrome. Our Trisomy 13 Journey with her as been one of becoming an advocate for those sharing this trisomy 13 journey. From the living with trisomy 13 community to trisomy 13 daily life, we continue to share trisomy 13 awareness helping the newly diagnosed families and those with living survivors live with this unique rare conditions. Some call it a rare disease, but its a syndrome.
