Time is Flying

Well Camille is 7 months old today. What a difference a month makes. She is able to sit up unassisted. Get up on her hands and knees and rock back and forth. She also "hops" forward while she is up there and usually ends in a face plant. She loves to put anything she can find in her mouth. Guess it is time to baby proof the house. Camille has slept in her crib the whole night for the last two or three nights - big accomplishment - before this week she was in Mommy and Daddy's bed. Happy Birthday Camille Rose!

CHARGE Syndrome

"CHARGE syndrome is a recognizable (genetic) pattern of birth defects which occurs in about one in every 9-10,000 births worldwide. It is an extremely complex syndrome, involving extensive medical and physical difficulties that differ from child to child. The vast majority of the time, there is no history of CHARGE syndrome or any other similar conditions in the family. Babies with CHARGE syndrome are often born with life-threatening birth defects, including complex heart defects and breathing problems. They spend many months in the hospital and undergo many surgeries and other treatments. Swallowing and breathing problems make life difficult even when they come home. Most have hearing loss, vision loss, and balance problems which delay their development and communication. All are likely to require medical and educational intervention for many years. Despite these seemingly insurmountable obstacles, children with CHARGE syndrome often far surpass their medical, physical, educational, and social expectations.

One of the hidden features of CHARGE syndrome is the determination and strong character these children display."
