Featured Participant Stories

Meet Theo

Our son, Theo, was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS). He had his first open-heart surgery at just 2 days old and stayed in the hospital for 8 months, during which he underwent 9 heart surgeries. During that time, Theo suffered brain trauma, leading to seizures and an epilepsy diagnosis. His motor function was also impaired, and he eventually received diagnoses of Spastic Quadriplegia Cerebral Palsy and Autism. 

When Theo came home, he was unable to roll over, sit up, and had no core or trunk strength. He could barely use his hands to pick up a toy or book. He was extremely orally averse due to multiple intubations and extubations, and he had some vision concerns. Read More...

Meet Annie

My name is Anna Marie Carlberg and I am 24 years old.  My friends and family call me Annie and that is the name I go by.  I was named after my grandmother who is one of my biggest cheerleaders.

I was born with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy with Atonic seizures.  I spent my first two months of life at Texas Childrenā€™s Hospital.  I was not expected to survive, but I sure fooled them.  I have spent my life in a wheelchair, although when I was younger, I was able to use a walker until I got taller.  I remain positive through my disability and I am known for constantly smiling. Read more...
