Our Beginning ... September of 1996, Lynn Robinette's two children were diagnosed with Freidriech's Ataxia, a form of Muscular Dystrophy. Ms. Robinette is a single mother. After several second opinions, she accepted the diagnosis but not the treatment. All of the doctors that she spoke with in 1996 gave her no hope. The only treatment was to sit back and watch.

She was told that the only thing that could be done was to watch the decline of her children and when their health became severe enough, then certain procedures could be performed to stabilize their condition. One procedure that was repeatedly mentioned was the need of fusing rods to the children's spines after the curvatures in the spine became more severe. The doctors predicted the need of the surgery within two years. She knew that she had to research other options.

After many hours of research, Ms. Robinette found other methods to help her children. As of today, ten years later, doctors have ruled out the need of rods being fused to the spine of Ms. Robinette's children. God is so faithful. During the first six years of our journey, many discoveries were made. Many needs were identified, and visions noted, thus the beginning of the Wishes 4 Me Foundation.
