Spina Bifida

My name is Bailey! At 20 months old it was discovered that I had a cyst on my spine called a syrinx as well as a tethered spinal cord. I was diagnosed with spina bifida. When I was 4 years old, I developed bilateral hip dysplasia due to not walking. I had surgery to fix the dislocated hips and I continue to be on a journey to prevent dislocating my hips. I enjoy playing wheelchair basketball. My butterfly is red and blue to resemble the Cubs; my favorite team.
