about me
Hi I am Nannette. I am the mother to two wonderful and handsome boys. Jake is 8 and Nathan is 6. Nathan being my baby has been diagnosed with CED (Camurati-Engelmann's Disease or Progressive Diaphyseal Dysplasia). I am so grateful to this tribe for all the great friends I have met here and all the help and support they have given me. I have met some of the greatest and strongest people and I know I have made some of the best life-long frineds. They give me such great comfort. I would love to share what I have learned and always love to hear what others have gone through and learned with CED.

The answer was always nightmares and he will grow out of it. Until we made him watch Nathan run up the clinic hallways. That triggered the mu... read more
