Mackenzie was born Aug. 20, 2004. She weighed 5 lbs 12 oz. She was so tiny. Her PKU test came up that her TSH levels were high, so the doctors put her on Synthriod. We have been back in forth getting blood taken.

My husband and I realized something was wrong when she wasn't starting smiling or even laughing. Her pediatrician sent us to Duke University, NC to have more blood drawn. They sent it off to PA.

On March 28, 2005, the test came back positive for Williams Syndrome. Mackenzie is showing some improvement. She is enrolled in PT and OT.

She's my little princess and I would not do anything different. I love her so very much.
