Hello. This is Jeffie.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
Hey, we're looking over applications for Jays Juniors and we
wanted to ask you about Adeline who is seven.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Yeah, Shelby eight at the end of next month. So
Adelin was born twenty five weeks and two days at
University of Michigan with her identical twin sister, and it was.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Thanksgiving morning when he came.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Into this world. Wow. So the girls were.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
Born obviously toteen weeks early, so they were quite thick
upon being born and meeting surgeries and respiratory support and
things of that nature. We lost Adelan's twin sister at
twenty days old due to infections, and Adelin stayed in
(01:17):
the aque for three months. We came home on oxygen
and lots of.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Lots of doctor's appointments, a lots of things. Adelin has
had had a brain league when she was born, which
is very common when they're born that early blood pressure
can't be maintained, and she had.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
What's considered a grade four, so that is the worst.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
So we really didn't know how Adalin.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Would be growing up, if she was going to be I.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Guess quote unquote vegetable, like if she would ever talk,
if she would ever walk, all.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
All these things, and she is a walking miracle. She
can walk, so you can run, she can talk, you
can sing. She's the five so many odds, and she's
been involved in a lot of programs and stuff to
get us to where we are today. But she is
just amazing and like the happiest kid you'll ever meet.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
There's a little picture of her holding the school bus.
Was that first a school Oh wow?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (02:17):
And I love the fact that she wants to be
a doctor and a police officer when she grows up.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Oh yes, yes. Her and her little brother argue about
it because he says, well, you can only be one thing,
and she goes, no, I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Both, So let's just talk about the family too, because
her she has older brothers, right are they sixteen and six?
Speaker 3 (02:35):
So her half older brother is sixteen, Okay, Brendan.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
He does live with us full time.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Actually, right after Adaman was discharged from the NICKU, his
mother had a very big stroke.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
We have a great relationship and all the things that
he is with us full time. We don't live far
apart from each other, so you know, but he is
with us full time.

Of sixteen old of course is sweet, right things for her.

They're eighteen months apart, actually younger brother, and he's problem the.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Child that's not her favorite brother.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
That's the one that, yeah, you don't get under her
skin a little bit. They there is true what they
say about the youngest one in the family. There's a
lot of a different breed, you know.
