Thank you so much for your SUPPORT!
I can not do this without YOU!
PLEASE COMMENT AND RATE-Here is a documentary of a life of someone affected by the genetic abnormality Turner's Syndrome. It affect one out of every 2500 live female births.
As in other genetic syndromes, people are affected in different ways. No two lives are the same. With genetic testing, doctors are urging women pregnant with a fetus with Turner's to abort their unborn children. Some have even urged this only to find the baby was born with NO birth defects, or evidence of Turner's. It is time to bring the human side to the debate regarding abortion, as science makes plenty of mistakes and we still have so much to learn.
MUSIC By the best guitarist who has ever lived, the incomparable Phil Keaggy "THE SURVIVOR" and NO I couldn't edit out the end of the song. I can't do that to this great song and artist!
"To a better society, and a more civil discussion on the subject of life"

  • What a amazing video. You are a true example of never believe what we are always told. Believe in ourselves. =) Congratulations to you and your hubby. We are going on 23 years and feel blessed for every second of it. We are lucky people to have found true love. I Love that pic of your kids standing by the water .. too cute.

  • Hi!! I'm Yesenia. I'm 25 and was diagnosed with Turners at 15. Why so late? Because like you I went through puberty like any other girl normally at 13 with no medications or anything needed. The only reason I found out I had turners was because I was short (4'9") and they decided for some reason to test that. I was told I would go through menopause in my early twenties and never have kids. I'm 25 and still have Normal periods. I'm going to a reproductive endo because I want to have kids and he

  • Thanks for sharing. Blessings :-)

  • @DearestBecky I appreciate you watching. Everyone has a story, this just happens to be mine, and the miracles that have happened in my life. The flowers were not the ones in my wedding,..those were the studio...They were lame...haha

    Thank you for the compliments....you are too kind...
