One day at a time
I had to share this link. It's about a boy born with the same problem that little Will has. He's an 18-year-old athlete in my son's class (they even share advisory). It's a good story!

That is a good article. And interesting to note that it wasn't diagnosed till after he was born. In the case of little Will, they knew long before he was born and were prepared for what they needed to do. It's truly wonderful how some advances are being made.
Oh, that's cool! The mother of the boy is on my committee for Project Graduation, so I will tell her about Will! I had never heard this story before the article came out.
OMG, can you imagine those poor parents: "Don't go into the nursery, there's something wrong with the baby!" I mean, wouldn't you just fly out to the nursery if you heard that? What a fantastic story, so good of you to post it, Teresa. And you know the young man, that's really neat.
I like the fact that the tri-doctor is the one who gets how Ted feels. Is he going to college, do you know, and if so, where? Best wishes to him!
