March is Trisomy 18 Awareness Month. Before I got pregnant with Rebeca, I had never heard of Trisomy 18. Since she did not survive, it looks like we won´t live with Trisomy 18 on a day-to-day, lifelong basis.
While Rebeca didn´t survive to birth, there ARE children who not only survive, but continue to live on long past the expected time marked out by the doctors. The following is one such story, a story about Kayden who is 10-years-old now, and his mother, who is working to carve out a new space for Kayden and other disabled children to play in Baxter County, Arkansas.
