~ New Beginnings ~
A true story of a young warrior 

Once upon a time, there was a couple in love. The would-be parents moved out to Colorado to start a family and the mother gave up her job to care for her babies. Blessed with a son, soon followed by another, they began a happy existence as a family of four.

“Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end”

A few months into this joyful time, the new baby boy broke the main bone in his lower leg. At birth, the family had been warned that his left leg was bent and may break at any time. At 7 months old, the little baby was in a cast - a hard, heavy, cumbersome addition to his tiny body. By this time, the family had learned that this bundle of joy had a random genetic mutation called Neurofibromatosis-1, despite the family having no previous history of this condition. Some of the possible complications of NF1 are frightening and the devastated parents realized that this broken bone could be only the beginning of their precious child's troubles.
