Welcome another Adult with MDS!

Hi Everyone

We have a new member! Here is what she had to say.....

Hello,

My name is Flanagan. I was diagnosed with MDS at age 3. At that

point the doctors told my parents that they had a couple of

options.....they could put me in a state school or take me home.

I'm now 36 years old and live in Texas. In May I will graduate from

South Plains College with two associates degrees. One in General Arts

and the other in General Science. This fall I will transfer to Texas

Tech University to earn a Bachelor's Degree in History or General

Studies.

I live independently and work a full time job and go to school part

time.

I'm glad that there is becoming more of an awareness of MDS! =)

Thank you!

Flanagan
