This website is about and for little Tyler. For those who delight in his large, captivating grin and bubbly personality. For those who want to see photos of his family, friends and special times as he grows up. And for those who want to understand more about his condition, Angelman Syndrome. Tyler was born in November 2000.
Tyler and his family have had major success with the ketogenic diet in controlling his seizures over the years. Click here to learn more about this special seizure therapy. Ty's individualized plan was supervised by his doctors and first begun under hospital care back in 2003. As of Fall 2007, Ty's parents are working with their physicians and nutritionists to transition from ketogenic to other workable dietitic options as Ty grows up.
On Saturday, May 16, 2009, the Angelman Syndrome Foundation Walk-A-Thon will be held in Denver again. Tyler is seen above crossing the finish line in 2008. Click here for the Walk-A-Thon website and the most up-to-date information for registering, donating and more.

Tyler and Clay -- Summer 2008.
Tyler, much to the joy of family and friends, participated in Northglenn's Challenger Baseball program for special needs children during Summer 2007 (photo above) and did so again in 2008. It is only due to the extensive therapy programs that Tyler's parents have arranged for him -- including the medically supervised ketogenic diet that helped control his seizures at a young age -- that Tyler is able to play baseball. Ty's big brother Clay is also an avid baseball player -- in summer 2009, Clay and his Dad are going with Clay's team to play in Cooperstown, NY.
