Heidi is 6.5 years old and has full Trisomy 18. 

She loves books, swimming, snuggles, homeschooling with mom, and being silly with her family! She is a big sister and absolutely loves her little sister, Willa! 

Heidi is a nonverbal communicator and uses eye gaze with both low tech AAC and a Tobii Dynavox to communicate. She loves to scoot around the house in her gait trainer and stand tall in her stander. She uses a wheelchair, as well. She is a cancer survivor (almost 6 years cancer free!), heart warrior (VSD repaired), tubie princess (Gtube fed), and clefty cutie (repaired cleft lip and palate). 

Her family thinks she's the strongest little girl in the world! To know Heidi is to know love!
