Megan

Her Story

My name is Megan.

22years old, born May 25, 2000
Parents of Debbie Brown and Ernie Lee Brown Jr.
graduated May 2019

I have Moebius syndrome.
Moebius Syndrome-extremely rare neurological condition which typically affects the sixth and seventh cranial nerves. These nerves affect the face and eye muscles and cause facial paralysis.

​

It’s hard to follow objects with one eye –instead I turn my head to follow.

Lack of facial expression
Webbed toes

My eyelids don’t close completely shut when blinking or sleeping.
Inability to smile and clearly understand sometimes.

BTW, I just want to say, for all people with disabilities OR a mental health CONDITION, I have depression.DO NOT let that define the person you are. EVERY person has a gift on earth to share with others, great talents even small ones if you do not have a talent. There is always a spark in someone you see.

I am a strong girl just carrying through life with her head up even when I feel like the worlds crashing down on me, I just keep taking one day at a time for some reason. I have therapy which really helps me.

​

I love to dance.
I love to do sign language.
I love tattoos. I have two.
I love my puppy, Stormy.

​

There is NOTHING truer in this world than the love of a dog. I just want to remind everyone that (you are never alone.)
