October is spina bifida awareness month. I have a 10 year old son with spina bifida. He is wheel chair bound and talks with sono flex and eats through a g tube. He is the best, wouldn't know what to do without him. Just like any other kid, he loves video games, and he has gotten into some dirty movies lately on netflix, oh my he is growing up. This disability affects roughly 1 in 1000 people and is formed withing the first month of pregnancy. Most people don't even know they're pregnant by the time it happens. Folic acid. Folic acid. Folic acid. Did I say folic acid? If you are planning to have children, please take your prenatal supplements and include some folic acid to help prevent spina bifida.
