My daughter has BPI injury.
She has Erbs Palsy C-5, C-6. Haley is now 10 years old.
Maybe we can make a name for BPI and make our goverment pay attention.

<r>I will pray for your baby as well as your family. <br/> I have a 10 yr old daughter with erbs palsy. I wasn't told about nerve repair surgery, or it wasnt done in 1993.
