The Tim Krahling story

I received a link to this article from a reader about Tim Krahling, who was born with severe spina bifida about 20 years ago. At the time of Tim's birth, there was a court fight about him . Eventually he was adopted and received surgery.

If you're interested, the article documents much of Tim's story - how he wound up with two sets of parents, biological and adoptive, and the efforts made to save his life.

Now Tim is a young man . In this narrated slideshow, you can meet Tim and hear his story.

My son has spina bifida and his care has been, like Tim's, a great deal of work. Luckily we had a supportive family and they helped out. I can understand parents giving up a child because I doubted at times we could manage. This story puts things in perspective for me with my son. Thank you for putting it up.
