Welcome to my website. My name is Benjamin and God designed me in a very unique way. The doctors believe I have VACTERL and possibly Moebius. To find out more about these conditions check out the information on the links page. Hope you enjoy and check back every once in awhile to see if there are any updates!

I cannot believe it has been so long since I've updated Benjamin's website. I guess my life is a little busy these days. Ben is doing absolutely fabulous. He is now walking with a push toy, crawling on his hands and knees and he's almost up to 16 lbs. I started adding a scoop of his formula to everything I feed him and it seems to be working. He is eating lots by himself now too. He is able to eat chunks of food and chews his food. I still feed him quite a bit because on his own he just doesn't eat enough. Benjamin's therapist is doing such an excellent job. Each week she has a new idea and has been very helpful. Getting Benjamin to drink out of anything but his special Haberman bottle hasn't been possible. One day she brought with her a honey bear with a straw in it. He is able to drink from it! I was so very excited. He puts the straw on his tongue and then I give it a gentle squeeze. He instantly fell in love with his honey bear. Thank you again for all your kind thoughts and for all of your prayers. God bless to all!

I would like to use this area as a place where you can write a message or prayer to Benjamin. I will print them out and put them in his scrapbook!
