Kayla (FAE) age 4

Kayla age 8


Hi, everyone:)) My name is Kayla Anne-Marie, and I was born June 2,1994. My birth Mom was an alcoholic and cocaine addict. She abused both all throughout the pregnecy.

My Mommy has been with me since I drew my first breath of life. I live with my mommy, and I have FAE (ARND). I also have ADHD, Chemical Imbalance in my brain, OCD, Severe Sleep Disorder, Severe Behaviour Disorder. Oh, and my doctor says I have Tourettes Tendencies, and Aspergers Tendencies. I also have Hepatitis C.

My mommy was a foster parent and from 1984 - 1988 my birth mom lived with her. Mommy says, if she only knew then, what she knows now about FAS/E, my birth mom might have had a different life. My birth mom, mommy thinks is also FAS/E.

Mommy and I appreciate all the help we are getting from the FASlink. It's helping mommy help me, and I'm sure happy. I really try to behave, but sometimes, I just can't follow instructions, sit still, not tantrum, or just run:((

Mommy says FASlink has helped her look after me, but also to understand my birth mom whom I at this time know nothing about. Thank-you to all the other parents and children on the link.

*hugs* Kayla (and Kayla's mommy Judy)
