Mommy participates in a "Mommy Board" for mommies that have babies that were born in March of 2008. Izzy, like Briana, was born in March of 2008. She's a beautiful, vibrant, little girl. Shortly after Izzy was born her parents, and doctors noticed that despite the fact that she was eating constantly, she was unable to gain weight. In April of 2008, Izzy was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). There currently is no cure for CF. Izzy undergoes a number of breathing treatments, physical therapy, and takes a multitude of other medications daily just to help her maintain her baseline. Izzy is a fighter, and her parents are praying that a cure will be found to help Izzy.
Deedra (Izzy's mom) is participating in a walk to find a cure. For more information, and to see pictures of the beautiful Isabel, you can click on the blog link to the right entitled "Izzy's World."
