Tyler - from the moment I first saw you in the hospital (the day you were born) I knew you were a very special little man. You were so small and fragile! You have proved a lot of dr’s wrong and continue to be a very happy, gorgeous boy.

I wish we lived closer so that you could give me a big hug - like you use to!

Miss you and love you lots and lots xx Auntie Clare xx

Your story is so moving. Parenting any child is no small feat and when you have a child with complex health and wellness issues you need an entirely new skill set! I am the author of a book titled Your Child’s Health & Wellness Record and the companion Document Organizer. This is a health journal that is suitable for children who are developing typically and those who have complex health issues. As an RN, BScN, photographer and mother of three I know how challenging it can be to keep health information organized. I also know that children who have parents that are organized, informed and comfortable advocating for them receive better health care.

I will send you a copy of these. I hope you find them helpful and that the information in them guides you in your journey. Go to my website for more information (www.healthandwellnessrecord.com). Best of luck to you all!

Luke and i have been looking at Ty’s lovely photos. I read your story and I didn’t realise the extent of what you and Marv went through Nic, it must have been even harder being that you were there without the family around. I admire you loads and will think of you when i feel things are getting tough. You have all been very brave. Ty, i hope you get to meet your cousins here in New Zealand one day. The last time i saw you i held you against my chest and you snuggled right in, i was so afraid of hurting you, you were so fragile. You are such a brave boy for all you been through and that bravery and stregnth will get you through the rest of your life,

All our love

Hi Nic, Marv and Tyler

Nic and Marv must say your is very touching and must have been such a release for you to be able to get it out in the open- and share with a lot of people that care about you all so much. Also such a good idea for Tyler to look at whilst he growing up. Great-nanny Jean would of loved and been so proud of him.

Hi Tyler you such a brave boy and nanny Carole loves you lots and lots xxx

What a wonderful way for you to share your story. The photo’s are lovely to see and remind us all of the little guy with the HUGE personality.
It was my priviledge to know Tyler for about 18months whilst he attended our Pre-school. It soon became clear that there was no obstacle that Tyler couldn’t overcome. He was so funny and very popular with everyone.
We all became friends and Charlie and Emily absolutely adore Tyler. They are always talking about him and asking how he’s doing. Shame you live so far away now but maybe one day we will turn up on your doorstep!!
So pleased that you now have a network of friends who are in a similar situation. I’m sure they will be a great source of strength for all of you.

With loads of love from Justine and the Bryant gang

We all Love you Tyler, you are so brave and you have a wonderful mum, dad, nana and grandpa who adore you.

I watched a program on The Learning Channel and know that there is another little girl in Canada named Kenadie. I think she is in Ontario somewhere. I don’t have a little person, but I enjoy reading about how great these kids are and how fantastic all the parents are after going through so much when your children were babies. I am sure its hard but it looks like you’rs doing a fantastic job!!! good luck and all the best for both of your futures!!!

Hi Nicola, what a lovely and beautiful website and what a georgous son you have. Like yourself I’m a parent of a primordial child (Alex). Just read, it’s a honour to meet people who have been through something that were only just beginning to understand and go through oursleves.

I’m so glad you visited our website and sent an email. Can’t reply to your email just yet as it the school run here and were about to take the other two children to school. But wow Alex has a friend now and can’t wait to meet each other.

Love and best wishes to you all.

Thanks for visiting our website and sending a email, can’t reply to the email as were about to do the school run but will do later. What a beautiful son you have and really honoured to meet you all. It’s nice to know that where not alone in the world and our boys have something in common. One day I hope we all can meet up in person and share experiences as parents and more than anything else our boys can get to know each other.

Best wishes to you all.

Nic, Marv & Tyler

What a touching website, it has brought many tears to my eyes.

It has been lovely to hear all about Tyler’s life, since you moved to Canada, as I often wondered how he was real getting on.

It is great to see so many photo’s of Tyler, there is so much I have missed. He is soooo adorable!!!!

Reading your story has brought back so many memories of our friendship and Tyler as a baby.

I remember the day you found out that you were pregnant, you had been so poorly and I remember visiting you only a week or so before in hospital, when the chance of you and Marv being a Mummy and Daddy was almost impossible. It was clearly meant to be as you make brilliant parents and he is a true miracle.

The day we saw Tyler in hospital, I remeber how small he was and I remember crying when I returned to the car, hoping and praying he would pull through. He is such a Special Boy

I feel so privileged to have met you all in person and had the chance to beome friends before you moved. We hope to see you all again one day and in the meantime keep in touch.

Lots of Love
Suzanne & Ray

Hey Tyler, Nic & Marv!!
I finally got to writing in your guest book! Haha believe it or not I’m still at work LoL. I would love to come by and take Tyler to the park, that would be awesome. Hes such an awesome kid. I’m so impressed with the way he just pet my Ball Python, I usually have to convince most kids that she’s not gonna bite, brave fellow he is. Next time he comes in I’ll definantly put my snake around his neck, I think he’d like that!
Well I guess its about that time to get back to work… unfortunantly. But I look forward to seeing you guys again. You are without question my favorite people to come into Petland. Have yourselves a good night and I’ll see you around!

Wow! What a story to read! Kisses to sweet Tyler and to his parents too!!

About the horses… if you ever find yourself near Langley BC there is a riding association there that specifically caters to riding horses for physical therapy and deals mostly with people with challenges. I wonder if they might be able to help out with a ride for Tyler (since the horses would be used to being gentle etc). Or maybe finding out who they are, and if they could find a place closer to you!? I mean heck, Calgary has a few horses… right!?

I read about you through Journal Modiste!

Tyler is truely one of Gods little miracles. I admire your strength so much. I don’t know yet if I am able to have children, due to medical issues, but I definately know that I would love to adopt a child with dwarfism. I grew up with having to constantly go to doctors and try new medications and I saw how tough it was on my parents, but they never let me give up. Now that I have gotten older it is my life goal to adopt a child and give them a wonderful life. I wish your family the best of luck and God Bless everyone who has one of these beautiful children in their lives.

Ive just read your story in Pick Me Up, Tylers 100% Cutie & you’re so lucky to have him, I’ve had ovarians cysts too, my last one was 9.5cm’s, I’ve had both my fallopian tubes removed because of them & have been told that I could only have children if I have IVF but I was told that they don’t consider IVF past the age of 36. I’m 37 now & I’ve resigned myself to never having a child of my own.
So, Tylers perfect no matter what condition he’s got & I hope he lives a long & happy life, congratulations on your second pregnancy too, I’m thrilled to bits for you

I read your story in pick-me-up, like most, and was so moved I could have cried. Tyler is such an adorable little boy, and although his story is a sad one, it is so nice to see he has such an adoring and supportive family. It makes you realise that, even when things are bad, you can manage to get through it with love and encouragement. I hope you all the best for your futures, and wish you the best of luck for Tyler and your family.

hey to nicola , tyler and marv
just read your amazing story in pick me up and had to visit your site,
your story is incredible, and tyler is such a strong, handsome young man.
after reading your story i was crying especially the bit at the end where he says ‘ share with baby’ the elmo, that is just adorable, i dont have kids so i couldnt possibly know what your going through but tyler must be an amazing character and you must be blessed to have such an incredible beautiful little boy. its sad that people stare at him, and even make comments, a child is a child no matter how they look in my eyes, apperences dont matter!
nicola congratulations to you and marv on your pregnancy, i bet tyler is excited to have a sister! anyway i just had to tell you that your son is amazing, good luck in everything he does in life, and good luck with the new baby when she arrives.
best wishes

I’ve just read Tyler’s story in ‘Pick me up’ and cant believe what a gorgeous little boy he is, he looks such a happy, lively child and doesn’t let the fact that he is small get in the way of what he wants to do. He will make the best Big Brother a sister could wish for.

All the best to you, Marv, Tyler & Bump x

Hello White Family!I have just this minute read you story in ‘pick-me-up’ and I just had to tell you that I think you are an amazing family! I know it must be hard with the stares but like you said you just look at him as cute, and he certainly is that!
You’ve got to look at it like this, some people are not blessed with children at all and you said there are only about 100 in the WHOLE world like Tyler, how blessed that you were chosen to look after such a precious gift!
I’ve no doubt he will be a loving, caring big brother to his sister. I wish you all the happiness in the world for your future!
With love from England

Hello all!

Just read about Tyler and I’m pretty sure I watched a program not too long ago which followed the conference in seattle. Just wanted to say I think that Tyler is the most adorable young man I have EVER seen! He is absolutely gorgeous and think he most probably has the personality to match! I’m a big believer in the saying that ‘good things come in small packages’ and I think you’ve got a wee diamond there!

All the best with the new arrival!

lots of love

Tyler is a gorgeous kid. My compliments to the lineage.

I’ve noticed that Achodroplastic Dwarfism, Primordial Dwarfism, and whatever it is that makes me (a 17 1/2-year-old, 6′ 4″ tall female who’s STILL growing, apparently) so darn TALL is becoming more common. “Normal” genes are starting to abstract. People like Tyler and myself are becoming more common as years go by.

But anywho, best wishes to you and Tyler. May he always find love, no matter where he goes.

Love,
Carissa

Hi Tyler,

I just watched worlds smallest kids on the discovery channel, and saw your story, it moved me to tears, not because of the challenges you face with everyday life, but because of the ignorant morons who would point at you and talk about you when you were out in public, if I saw that kind of thing going on, I couldn’t stop myself from putting my hands on them to let them see how it feels, im a very big guy at 6ft 3 and 252 lbs, I am a bodybuilder you see and would like to see how they could handle it if I picked them off the floor and humiliated them, im sorry but it really upset me to see how people treated you, you may feel upset when they point, but they are the ones who should be upset and ashamed at their own ignorance and stupidity, such is their punishment and this is the worst punishment a person can have.

I was amazed by your outstanding intelligence, in my opinion the mind is the most important thing we humans possess, we should all strive to actualise our full human potential, and the best way to do this is by advancing our intelligence as human beings.

I would like to tell you, I was in a near fatal accident when I was 19, im 27 now, I spent 2 months in a coma and suffered massive internal injuries, I was riding a motorcycle you see and a car pulled out on me, I hit the car and was thrown shoulder first into a concrete lamp post, all the doctors told my parents that it doesn’t look good and basically they didn’t think I would pull through, doctors are not infallible as I have proven myself on so many occasions, I also damaged my c5/c6 nerves in the accident, the c5 nerve innervates (means nerve supply to a body part) many muscles, deltoid, infra and supra spinatus, rhomboids, teres major and minor, basically all the muscles of the shoulder and scapula (shoulder blade), c6 innervates biceps and the fore arm muscles, I was told I would regain no useful function of the effected limb, I regained every single muscle except the deltoid and I have full strength to the muscles I regained, they told me I would never be able to lift weights again, they got that wrong! What I am saying is doctors are very apt at misjudging the power of the human spirit and the human will, I have come through the impossible, I thought I was strong, but compared to you I feel weak, as for your condition, I would recommend you research it for yourself in your own time, but first you must build your learning framework, once you manage this, you will find you can learn anything you set your mind to, the books I recomenned are a good start, again you can do so in your leasure if you wish, I learned about the peripheral nervous system, because I knew the ‘experts’ were not correct in everything they were telling me, so I needed to learn for myself and to my astonishment I discovered that the ligaments of my acromioclavicular joint were ossified (gone to bone) and the whole joint was not capable of movement because the very joint was damaged also, I tried to get the joint repaired but no surgeon would help me, because my previous surgeon was very eminent and the other surgeons didn’t want to take me on, they didn’t like the fact that in such a short period of time, I had learnt so much about my condition and was directing them with my treatment, lol, i also suffered secondary hypoxic brain damage,but curiously this made me far more determined in everything, especially to learn, therefore it allowed me to become far more intelligent, yet when i was in ICU, i couldnt speak, write or even recognise my parents.

To be honest I dont like many doctors, I find the more eminent they are the more obtuse they become.

I would like to recommend you some literature if I may, they are two of my favourite books, The fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged both by Ayn Rand, to learn more about the philosophy of objectivism, you can visit www.aynrand.org

Please never forget that you are a very special person, and I believe you have a great potential for intellectual advancement, as you are a very bright young woman.

Please take care Tyler, we wish you all the best.

Paul and Kate.

People often refer to those who suffer with primordial dwarfism as “the cutest thing alive,” or “an angel,” and “miracle baby: a gift from god.” Perhaps, in some twisted way, these terms are somewhat correct, but there is no real need to use these pet names when referring to people. Tyler is a beautiful baby, and so in that sense, yes, he is cute, but he is not a “thing,” and i find it astounding how so many people believe that this is a compliment. Tyler is meant to be here, he defied what all of the doctors declared. He may seem like a miracle baby, but i strongly believe he is here at his own will, and the will of his parents, who had faith in him throughout his development. Tyler shouldn’t be called a “cute little thing,” he should be told he is an amazing boy, exceeding all minimal expectations. He should be pushed to do his best, to achieve his goals. He should be treated like a normal human being. People who are illiterate enough to call him a thing, an inanimate object should learn to think before they speak.
I wish Tyler and his family all the best, wherever their lives may take them.
I wish the family an abundance of luck for having to deal with the struggles of dealing with the symptoms of raising a child diagnosed with primordial dwarfism.
Lastly, I wish all the best to Tyler, because with enough perseverance, he can attain anything he wishes.

Hi,
I saw your story on T.V the other night and it was really heart touching. As I was watching I tried to understand more about dwarfism and how it affects one life. To my understanding it must be hard for your family.

Well I was so inspired by your story and others, that I have decided to better aware, and try to involve my community (school, job, churches, etc…). I am trying to start up a mini fashion business, and instead of keeping my earnings, I am going to personally donate them to families who suffer from dwarfism.

THANKS for the inspiration and may GOD BLESS YOU!

I have just had the honour of reading about Tyler in Pick me Up magazine, while I am Australian I have Pick Me Up sent every week. Tyler is a small soul with a big heart and I really can not believe there are people out there that can not understand “DIFFERENT” does not spell “FREAK”………..I tell my 5 children that if they looked up the word “DIFFERENT” in the dictionary they would find it in actual fact means “SPECIAL”, to Tyler’s parents I just want to say to keep doing what your doing “BEING GOOD PARENTS” you have a lovely lively boy.

Enjoy being a big brother soon Tyler.
