Adalynn is an active four-year-old girl who loves music! She was born with multiple congenital disabilities of the trachea, esophagus, brain, and lungs, including the absence of her left thumb and various anomalies of her head and face. Adalynn uses a special hearing aid called a BAHA, which utilizes bone conduction to help her through her hearing loss. Adalynn depends on a tracheostomy in her throat to help her breathe and a feeding tube for eating. Adalynn continues to make tremendous strides each day and is currently walking and utilizing language stimulation cause-and-effect toys to help her communicate more. All of us at St. Mary’s are proud of Adalynn’s progress and hard work!
