I was born with a number of birth defects. I was at Palo Alto Stanford Prematujre Research Center. I was the first baby to get the infant nebulizer , its called something else. President Kennedy;s little boy was born with the same disorder and died. They funded alot to get this machine for infants. THis machine saved my life. I was born with, Respiratory Distress Syndrome. It left me with damaged lungs, I also had trachael stenosis, which at age 6, went away and now I have ,severe asthmatic bronchitis, and COPD.. BUT I am alive and live a productive busy life. The doctors and my parents never gave up hope for me. I am now 43. Parents don't give up.
