Hi! My name is Lindsay
Annette and I was born in 1999 to my eagerly awaiting
parents and big brother. Much to their surprise, I was missing my left
arm from just below the elbow. Several ultrasounds, including 2 Level II's did not reveal my difference. |
| After seeing several
specialists, they concluded that "amniotic banding" was the
cause. Whatever it may be, everyone thinks I'm just perfect!! |
 |
|
These are my parents, Chris and Ana in searching for answers on the
Internet, they came across I-CAN soon after my birth. And what a great
organization it is!! They're thankful for the unending support, wealth
of information and most of all friends, they have found through I-CAN.
We hope to meet some other I-CANers in Memphis later this year.

Let me introduce you to the rest my
family. This is my brother Ryan who is 2 1/2 years old |
 |
In the beginning he
asked why "Winsy has only one hand" but shortly thereafter
assumed it was perfectly normal. He's a great big brother and I'm sure
he'll provide lots of loving support for me, but just as long as I don't
touch any of his many, many "cars". |
|
And these are my other family members, Hailey and
George. They're feeling a bit displaced these days, but rest assured
they are still quite spoiled.
|
Thanks to Bill and
Joyce for creating the wonderful world of
I-CAN and to all the others whose contributions and words of wisdom have
helped us tremendously.
Thanks for visiting me and by the way, I really am
a little princess.
