As a lifelong educator, living, learning and teaching have and will always be important. In retirement, life changed when my son's first child was born a MICROPREEMIE at 23 weeks weighing in at 1 pound and 4 ounce. We are in Kentucky and so this little man is listed as KYColton or just Colton here on my You Tube channel. Colton was in the NICU for 172 days and came home on oxygen and with a heart monitor. Colton lives with BLINDNESS and CEREBRAL PALSY, is a miracle in our lives and the happiest boy you can meet. As the GRANDMOTHER of thirteen wonderful grandchildren I have many opportunities to gather and share videos about real life. We now have another MICROOPREEMIE, LINKN CHANCE; he weighed only 13 ounces! Check out his life too. I have recorded older members of our family to build ANCESTRY LINKS of our FAMILY through the GENERATIONS. As a retired educator from NASA, I like to share stories to keep them alive and to educate others who can learn from our experiences.
