Hi there - my name is Kristin Wall and I'm a survivor of Cushing's syndrome.
I developed Cushing's syndrome during my last trimester of pregnancy. Before getting pregnant, I was an active, healthy, fit person.

On February 8, 2009 Joey, our bundle of joy arrived five weeks early! A few days later we learned that he had Down syndrome. We had no idea throughout the pregnancy that our baby was going to have Down syndrome. But we had refused most of the prenatal testing because when I saw Joey's heart beating on an ultrasound at 9 weeks gestation I knew that was a baby, our baby, and it did not matter...

I am a wife, mother and labor & delivery nurse. Life is pretty busy and trying to find a balance between all of these is the joy of my life.

I had a D&C August 27, 2009. My blog...
For ten years we were a family of two. Three if you count our dog. We had a dream. Marriage and children and the whole happy ending. In 2003 we found out that our dream may not come true. First clomid three times. Five IUIs. Four IVFs. Thousands of dollars and many years. And still a family of two. Three if you counted the dog.
It was during that emotional roller coaster that I started this...

I was athletic, very lean and continued to stay fit by enjoying bike rides and playing recreational co-ed softball. However, when I started a family at 25, I had...
