- 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.

WOOT WOOT I AM GOING to MO. for SURE!!! Can't believe it but price was lower than I thought. I am soooo anxious and ready to see every one, especially all my adopted "Grands", your dear children have grown sooo much, & sadly I have a good number of new ones since my last Camp in 2007.
It's a good time to buy tickets if you are flying to Mo. before prices increase.
Claudia and Anise you are doing 1 fantastic job....!
Can't wait to HUG you all,.... so watch out for this hugging
