EXTRA TOUGH AND SPECIAL

When I was pregnant with the twins, when we found out about the TTTS we also found out that little Kooper was going to be an extra tough and special kiddo. Kooper has a partial amputation of his right leg. We were told that this was more than likely caused by the amniotic band and that we are very lucky that it was his leg and not another part of his body. We were also told that he had his knee joint...but the physical therapist that comes and sees him says she is 99% sure that there is not knee joint, just his upper leg bone. Having a knee joint would make a prosthetic a lot easier for Kooper, but it's okay. We are told that once he starts showing signs of wanting to walk, to got him a prosthetic. This will NEVER hinder Kooper, he will run and play with his brothers just like any other little boy. We feel that this is probably why we were blessed to have twins...Kooper will have Conner by his side to help protect and stick up for him. We truly are blessed to have both these little babies, along with our other three boys.
