About Me

My photo
Jasmin is a beautiful little girl who is full of life, love, and laughter. She was born prematurly at 26 weeks and had a severe brain bleed. Because of the difficulties after birth Jasmin is unable to walk or talk. You can see that she has a personality,an inner being that is full of light. She laughs and cries. Many doctors told us that she would never feel- but she does. She feels when her brother or sister are ill- she cries when they do and laughs when they do. The most amazing thing is that inside the body is a little girl who is trying to come out. Her personality shines and draws people to her.

We have reached Germany

We have finally reached Germany. We had a difficult trip. Jasmin got very ill on the plane. It was so hot that she would not stop crying. The airplane was ready for take off and my mom and I still could not get her to quiet down. We were afraid they would kick us off. We kept asking them to turn the air on in the plane and we were told to buckle her in. We were finally able to quiet her down to get her buckled in. Once the plane was in the air she settled right down. After that the flight was uneventfull untill we reached Heathrow airport in London and had to go through securtiy again. That was the WORST experience of our lives. So we knew that we had to take all of Jasmins meds out of her carry on so they could inspect them. No BIG deal RIGHT!!!! I was sooooo wrong. London airport security told us we either fed Jasmin SIX jars of baby food right there and then or they would throw them out. Then they made me taste each and every liquid medication. Now I was prepared or so I thougt. I had gone to the doctor and asked for a note stating that we would be traveling with baby food and medications because of the disabilities Jasmin has. London airport were the most uncaring, selfish, jerks I had ever met. They made us open sealed bottles of nutrition and had me drink out of each bottle. Look I'm all for a secure flight but this was rediculous. They stated that they did not care if the milk went bad and that we had two hours from time of ipening the bottles to give them to her before they went bad. They then proceded to rip our luggage apart, throw our clothes on the floor. Lets just say We were glad we had finally made it.
