Meet Abigail!


Abigail ELizabeth turned 2 on the 24th of March, she was born 2 months early due to her shutting my kidneys down and blocking my ureter. This caused my kidneys to block which brought on a lot of infections and 7 nephrostomy tubes having to be placed. 

We have had a rough go at life but she is such a Miracle in our lives. As of right now she is suffering from Severe Dysphagia. She is considered to have failure to thrive due to her not being able to swallow properly. She barely weighs 23lbs as of right now due to this issue. She has many specialists that she sees and they can't seem to figure out why she is getting worse. We are waiting on several extensive tests to see if they can pinpoint the issue.
