My name is Jodi. I have over 16 years caring for a child with special needs. My daughter was born at 24 weeks. After spending almost a year in the NICU she came home with a trach, feeding tube and a long list of meds. She has outgrown the need for the trach and feeding tube but is completely blind from being so early.
