Charmaine is 29, from Newfoundland Canada.
Family:Husband Greg, Daughter Karrie
My daughter is now 2 months old and has suffered from a brachial plexus injury resulting from a difficult birth. She has a little movement in her shoulder and one of her tricep muscles but no noticable movement anywhere else.
We are doing physio with her daily and seeing lots of doctors. We now have to travel to Ontario, Canada from Newfoundland because there are no specialists here.
Financially these trips will be a strain. Does anyone know where we can turn for financial help??
