- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.

Hi Kathy:
The Zweig's hope you are doing well. I wanted to give you an update on
Steph's second year at Plattsburgh State. You may want to post this on the
UBPN website for the other parents and children to see. This is big news!
Stephanie, Wendy and I just got back from North Carolina where Steph was
awarded 3rd Team All-America Honors by the National Fast Pitch Coaches
Association. This means that she was considered one of the top 6 Division
III pitchers in the US.
Steph was also named to the NCAA 1st Team All-Region Team.
She also was awarded the State University of New York Athletic Conference
Valor Award.
The NCAA also published a new article on Steph for this year.
Below are some links that you can point to for the exact stories.
Be well,
Andy Zweig

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: LOBPI. I am 77 yrs old and never had a name for my injuries until 2004 when I found UBPN at age 66.
My injuries are: LOBPI on upper body and Cerebrael Palsy on the lower left extremities. The only intervention I've had is a tendon transplant from my left leg to my left foot to enable flexing t age 24 in 1962. Before that, my foot would freeze without notice on the side when wearing heels AND I always did wear them at work "to fit in" I also stuttered until around age 18-19...just outgrew it...no therapy for it. Also suffered from very very low self esteem; severe Depression and Anxiety attacks started at menopause. I stuffed emotions and over-compensated in every thing I did to "fit in" and be "invisible". My injuries were Never addressed or talked about until age 66. I am a late bloomer!!!!!
I welcome any and all questions about "My Journey".
There is NO SUCH THING AS A DUMB QUESTION.

You are sooo awesome. I am so proud of you and am proud to know you. You sure are a great role model for all OBPI children to pursue playing in sports and/or at least try anything they may want to play and do sports-wise.
Thank you too, Mr. and Mrs. Zweig, for your continuing inspiration for us parents.
Hugs to all,
