Hi my name is Rene. I married at the age of 18; gave birth to 4 beautiful children but I also had 2 miscarriages. I remarried at the age of 34 at 35 I gave birth to another child; I then had another sad miscarriage; At the age of 38 I found out I was pregnant again, at my 4 month visit the Doctor wanted me to get an Amniocentesis done because something about the blood work dident look right.
So about a week later my husband and I went to have the test done, so a few minutes later I got real excited to find out that I was having another Boy, my only other son was 16 at the time so I got real happy to know he was getting a little brother; Well the tests were done and that they would call us back with the results. A week later they called us in for the news, So here we are listening to everything that that would change all the plans and dreams we all had. It was like packing to go on a trip to Hawaii and ending up in Alaska with nothing to wear. So I'll speed forward, David was born one month early on march 21 1999. He weigh 6/14 oz and 19 1/2 in long. He was such a pretty baby he was my only child born by a C-section needless to say I had my tubes tied. Well the Doctors thought he had Hirchmans disease, it has to do with the stomach intestines. Well that was Negative and so was every other test they ran he finally got out of the childrens Hospital when he started gaining weight and eating on his own so finally after two weeks we went home.
Everyone was so excited to see little Davie. He had all kinds of therapist that would come to the house to teach him. David learned very quickly and soon started CDS at the age of three and through his school years the therapy is still continuing. He is in special Ed and learning life skills. Next year he'll be in sixth grade, he can read at a third grade level as well as math. David has surprised everyone that works with him. Davie is deeply Loved by all his siblings, he also has many friends in regular class room. David likes music and he can really Dance. He loves movie playing basketball and riding his bike. Davie and I spend lots of time together looking through stores, he has a big heart he never thinks of himself and he is very much a gentleman. I love david with all my heart and I wouldn't change a thing about him, to me he's perfect.. and when I think back about the day we learned that we were having a little boy with Mosaic Downs I thank God that we took that trip to Alaska....
