Our guest for Episode 105, Jamie Holmes Ward founded Jamie’s Dream Team in 2005 when she was just eighteen (18) years old.
The mission of Jamie’s Dream Team is to offer hope when there is little, to ease the burden caused by serious illness, injury, disability, trauma, or catastrophic events, and to finally celebrate individual differences by acknowledging dreams as possibilities.
Jamie was born with a rare disorder known as V.A.T.E.R. Syndrome. Children born with V.A.T.E.R. Syndrome can have congenital abnormalities of the vertebrae, lower intestine, trachea, esophagus, and kidneys.
In Jamie’s case, she was born with abnormalities in all those areas. She has had over forty-five (45) surgeries and/or medical procedures since birth, including surgeries to reconstruct her esophagus, trachea, and lower intestine, and to fuse several vertebrae in her spine.
Despite the pain and suffering that she has, and will continue to endure, she hasn’t let any of it stop her. She’s a tireless advocate and a devoted mother to her daughter Daisy, and her heart will always be with others who are suffering.
