The Brayden Alexander Global Foundation for Hydranencephaly, Incorporated; doing business as Global Hydranencephaly Foundation. MISSION: The Global Hydranencephaly Foundation is a family driven nonprofit organization dedicated to providing families faced with a diagnosis of hydranencephaly, the opportunity to help their child live the quality of life he or she deserves. The family-to-family resource network is the foundation of this mission; an ideally structured, multi-faceted community for the dissemination of invaluable information, sharing of effective care management strategies specific to the unique circumstances a family faced with diagnosis of this rare neurological condition may encounter, and individualized, life-long support. Emphasis is placed on the development of empowered parent advocates, strengthened by availability of comprehensive information, geographically tailored resources, and a confident awareness of the rights children have to quality, compassionate care without discrimination. We embrace the opportunity for continuous growth through the expansion of additional collaborative partnerships with like-minded organizations and reputable community businesses. Through community-based awareness campaigns and the planned infiltration of the medical community, we aim to conquer the misconceptions that exist surrounding this diagnosis and portray a clearer picture of the possibilities that exist for these children; giving multiple reasons to “Believe in the Impossible!”

I'm really quite clueless what the point of tumblr is... however, checking it out a little more in depth and totally open to the possibility of reaching people our mission may not otherwise reach! That said, welcome to advice and suggestions of how to best utilize this platform to not only connect with more families, but to network with potential business partners, celebrities, or experts in the field of complex medical needs; especially hydran.

WHAT IS YOUR EARLIEST HUMAN MEMORY?
Earliest human memory as the nonprofit entity represented here: my back-and-forth debate over several months of whether to jump in head first with a crazy idea to make a nonprofit in around September 2010. And so it began with a quote from a movie, "Bee Movie"

From our bee-buddy, Haydin's mommy:
"Haydin is a young boy who was born with hydranencephaly, meaning he is missing 75% of his brain. He was never thought to be able to make it to his first birthday but this year he's turning 5! To celebrate this huge milestone we are raising money to get his to San Antonio so he can go to Morgan's Wonderland, a theme park specially made for handicapped children.
The money raised will go towards airfare, hotel fees, food, a wheelchair accessible van rental, and a possible trip to the San Antonio Zoo. We are looking at doing 4 days in San Antonio so Haydin can really enjoy himself in the warm weather and all the fun. Please feel free to pass this page along to friends and family and help Haydin reach his goal! - See more at: http://www.youcaring.com/other/help-haydin-get-to-morgan-s-wonderland-for-his-5th-birthday/123292#sthash.EphXxKbJ.dpuf"

HYDRANENCEPHALY: "Among the ever-growing list of labels attached to the little lives touched with a diagnosis of hydranencephaly, lies the term "medically fragile." A term that many of us have likely used time and time again, without even thinking twice... a term that's used to define many children who have forever been blessings in all who are fortunate to have them in their lives. It's an official title, granted to only the true super heroes of the bunch." ~Global Hydranencephaly Foundation

Hydranencephaly is a rare neurological condition, knowingly occurring in fewer than 1 in 10,000 births across the globe, in which the brain’s cerebral hemispheres are absent and replaced with sacs of cerebrospinal fluid. There is no known cause, no cure, and very little optimism available for...
...and you need a real life, maybe building up a piece of the world instead of tearing it down.
