Good news!
I first off wanted to let everyone know that Brady is home and doing very well. He is drinking and eating again and seems to feel really well. The doc said that he had 25% to 50% open airway in his throat,the rest was occluded. I really think that he is going to feel so much better now that he can actually breath.
I also wanted to let everyone know that we got a call from the lady at medicaid yesterday and after a long battle,Brady has been qualified,not only for the waiver program,but for full medicaid!! We have been fighting so long,I just cant believe that it is finally happening. So for those of you have given up hope,keep fighting there are ways to get your child qualified. We had to have Brady institutionally deemed in order to qualify him for services. For those of you who do not know what this mean,this process involves getting a person approved for Medicaid because of their need for the E/D program. To obtain Medicaid, the client’s spouse or parent’s income is deemed ineligible as part of the client’s finances.
Anyway I just wanted to update everyone on whats been happening lately.

About Brady

Read Brady's Story Here   

I am 11yrs old and I have Angelman Syndrome. I may have this syndrome, but I dont let it hold me back. I love life and live it to the fullest every single day. My mom says that our research organization, Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics, is working really hard on a treatment or even a cure for me and my friends. I am thankful to have 25 words but I look forward to the day that I can carry on long conversations and talk so much that everybody has to ask me to please be quiet for a few minutes :) Anyway, mom says Im awesome and super funny and I have to agree,lol.
