young woman 28 yrs. old with Lock-in-syndrome.

This story was just forwarded to me by my friend Suzy Everhart Fehlig about a young woman 28 yrs. old with Lock-in-syndrome. Locked-in syndrome is a condition in which a patient is aware and awake but cannot move or communicate verbally due to complete paralysis of nearly all voluntary muscles in the body except for the eyes.

Kirby Walker is a 28-year old woman from Northwest Arkansas who suffered a massive stroke on December 22, 2012. She is in VERY critical condition (Locked-In Syndrome), and desperately needs our love, faith and support. She's a mother to two beautiful baby boys, and a fiance to a wonderful man. Kirby's a third grade teacher who's very dedicated to her students, family, and friends. She is very loved and needed. Please share her story, and keep her in your prayers.

Dear Marcie,

Thank you for contacting me and expressing your support for HB 275 and HB 276.

Texas has one of the highest rates of childhood obesity in the nation, with more than 20 percent of children being considered obese. Children are living more sedentary lifestyles, which make the need for increased physical activity and more health education in our schools more important than ever. While both of these bills alone will not eliminate obesity in Texas, these bills are a step in the right direction in an effort to reduce childhood obesity.

It is going to take a comprehensive approach with individuals, families, businesses, government and communities all working together to address this issue. Again, thank you for your support and please do not hesitate to contact my office if I can be of assistance on any matter.
