Trevor's Sitei! Our names are Michael and Laurie Beard. We have two daughters, Heather{;} 14 and Brianna 7. We tried for a long time to have a son, and finally our prayers{;} were answered on August 23, 1996. Our son, Trevor Colt Beard, was born!{;} When Trevor was born via C section, we knew that something was wrong{;} because he was rushed out of the room to the nursery. The docs told us that he{;} had swallowed some fluids during birth so was having trouble breathing. We were{;} concerned, but not overly. A few hours later our world turned upside down when{;} our pediatrician advised us that Trevor had Down Syndrome.
Sadie HLHSMy daughter, Sadie, was born on May 15, 1995. She was a full-term, good-sized baby (8lb.,1oz.). Because of a{;} difficult 36 hour labor her apgar scores were low and they monitored her closely in the beginning. They told us{;} she had a heart murmur and they did a chest x-ray and EKG. They couldn't find anything wrong (!) and{;} decided to let us go home the next day, telling us to have the murmur checked again soon. We went home{;} after the doctor told us that many babies are born with murmurs that go away soon after birth. Well, it didn't{;} go away so we made an appointment with a cardiologist. Like most parents, I never thought I would have a{;} child with a heart defect, so I wasn't too nervous about our appointment. Besides, Sadie seemed in great{;} health. How could anything be wrong with my perfect child?
