Who is coming to camp?

Post by Kristie »

I was curious about who we will be meeting at camp?
Is anyone else willing to fess up about who is going to be there?

I am coming with my six and a half year old son Ian!
We are from Urbana,IL but Ian was actually born in WA.

We're coming! I'm bring my daughter Amber (4 1/2 years, ROBPI), and my son Casey (12 years, dystocia with no injury). Hubby is staying at home for work purposes (wish us luck for travelling by plane with just me to keep the kids busy with a layover! We're traveling from Central NY (flying out of Syracuse). This is our first year attending.

Kailyn (10 yo ROBPI) and I will be travelling from Boston to attend. My other two daughters (Julia 8, and Sarah 5)will be starting school on the 30th, but Kailyn gets to miss those first two half days for camp! My wife is staying to bring them to school.... Looking forward to another great camp experience (this will be our 3rd time)

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.

I'm hoping the weather is good.
