Michelle wanted to be a Mom since she was little and didn't want her paralysis to prevent her from having that dream. She had to be on bed rest pretty much the entire pregnancy and had frequent infections and problems with her autonomic dysreflexia (sp). I'm NOT very good at finding stuff on-line......but perhaps someone else is. ;)

I just thought it might be interesting.


There is still another time for it to air so hopefully I got this out quickly enough :double-puke:

Discovery Health shows that program a few times every quarter. No waorries you'll eventually catch it. I found it interesting the first time, but now Ive seen it so many times I cant remember what I liked about it.

If you see Half man Full Life on Discovery Health I suggest you watch it. Jessy Stitcher is truely an inspiration. I travelled the side show with the guy, he's such an amazing man!

Woopsie.

I knew it was filmed a couple years ago but didn't know it has already become a rerun. Say is the person you're talking about by chance born with out the lower half as a birth defect & she goes around via skateboard(Q) Anyway thanks for being on top of it chez.

No wheelie, I cant remember the girls name...Amanda maybe? Jessy Stitcher is a guy.. 'The Half Boy' is what he calls himself. They each have their own program on DH.
