I was not diagnosed with FASD until I was 43 yrs old and not knowing the reasons for my actions was very frustrating. I was really a person who wanted to do good!! I could not understand what drove me to disappoint those I wanted to be proud of me. I was so lost! It was only after I was diagnosed with FASD that I realized my brain was like a fuse box on overload without the current flow that healthy brains have, to give me the chance to think before I acted and make a choice.This was taken away from me by the alcohol before I was born. Now where do I go from here? First it was important for me to realize the reason I had a short circuit. With this information I could pick up from that point and not keep bashing my head against the wall trying to be normal and function like those who don't have brain damage. This is impossible! Now knowing this would I take advantage of this Knowledge? At first maybe so, but with a chance to begin where I am capable and achieve from that point can only better my life. Now I might have a damaged brain and be unable to make decisions, but by turning to my higher power, that being (God) would and could take over for me.

I could as these words suggest be "BORN AGAIN". Yes I am talking about faith and turning my life over to Jesus Christ. Now just Imagine being able to have The Son of God take over for my damaged fuse box. Well I have done just that, Jesus Christ is guiding me and when I have a situation that needs a fuse box Jesus is there to comfort me and calm mtaught me the signals. I first start out with the mellow music of a Composer named Mars Lasar. With a Name Mars who would think His Music helps with bringing me back to earth. Faith in my life over rides the brain damage and gives me the strength to listen and let Jesus take control! I don't always release it to The Lord. That's when I have problems and begin to panic! But in the end of all the defects that the alcohol has given me, Jesus takes over and all is calm and Peace is restored.

Programs are needed for those who are affected with FASD. I will devote my life to see that these get off the ground. I also will help create them, this is my pledge to our Special Ones and those who Love them! Although FASD is for Life, hope is here and I'm no different from any other affected individual. I cast a Rainbow and say that at the end of this Rainbow is productive life for all with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. I will help unlock that door and help all of you see this Rainbow and see the productive life that Your Special One can lead.
