I never heard of it and there is really not much information on this

disease.....so you can just imagine what the first year for us must have

been...it felt like we are at the hospital every other day meeting with all the

different specialists that will be involved in my child's life. He had his first

surgery on 12/18/2009 and his doctor was very pleased with it....my challenge

now is its difficult watching him struggle to begin walking...I was wondering if

there is anyone out there that could give me some tips or pointers on how to

help my little angel out. I have giving him a little chair which he pushed again

while he is walking but I don't want he to depend on this all the time.

several in my family have bleph...never affected our learning to walk...just

treat him like any other baby...good luck
