Alex Meyer
Living and thriving with the challenges of spina bifida BY LISA KIMBLE Special to Bwell
I
f success, as educator Booker T. Washington once said, is to be measured not so much by life’s position as by the obstacles one overcomes, then 19-year-old Alyssa Arana is truly triumphant. Born with spina bifida, a developmental birth defect caused by the incomplete closing of the embryonic neural tube, the bubbly high school graduate is on top of the world these days, having learned to walk with canes not long ago. “It was scary, when you are with something for so long, and it was very emotional,” Alyssa said. “You grow an attachment.” Her walker, once her constant companion since she was 5, now sits in the corner of her living room. By her side now is a pair of hot pink canes, one with the sticker that reads, “Never give up.”
Born this way Like Alyssa, 6-year-old Alex Meyer is reaching for the stars as he shoots hoops in an after-school activity program for children with disabilities, the League of Dreams.
“The most important thing for me is Alex has the opportunity to play sports and to be part of a team,” said Amy, Alex’s mother. “And you hope your kids will be able to do normal kid things.” Each year, about 1,500 babies are born with the condition that causes damage to the lower extremities and often an abnormally shaped brain, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Most children do not have problems from it; however, in severe cases, walking and daily activities can be difficult without help. As for Amy, she developed complications 22 weeks into her pregnancy. Doctors could not confirm a diagnosis of spina bifida at that time. An amniocentesis later ruled out a chromosome defect, but it made no matter. The Meyers would not consider any other option but full-term delivery of their second child. “There were a lot of tears to start with. It was a shock, but we were relieved to learn it was not chromosomal,” Amy said.

Alex has undergone 14 surgeries on everything from head to toe, including placement of a shunt in his head and corrective surgery for his bilateral clubfeet. “From the waist down, Alex has difficulties like putting on his shoes, and things we take for granted,� Amy said. He receives physical therapy twice a week and occupational therapy on a third day. At home, Alex moves about by crawling. While at school, he walks only a few minutes at a time. But his limited mobility hasn’t slowed his desire to stay active. His grandfather modified a BMX bike that Alex is able to ride using his hands. Happy-go-lucky, Alex finished his second season of baseball at Fruitvale-

Not alone Alyssa, who moved to Bakersfield from Ventura a year ago, didn’t learn to walk with the help of a walker until she was 5 years old. She underwent her first of five surgeries immediately after she was born. “The doctors told my parents that I would never be walking,� Alyssa said. Like Alex, her legs are fitted with braces. She also wears a shoe lift. “I can’t walk without the braces. My ankles tend to twist and I have no feeling from the ankles down.� But Alyssa’s world changed earlier this year when she met 26-year-old Misty Diaz, a Bakersfield native and friend of one of Alyssa’s instructors.

ple’s awareness through social media and a nonprofit she is creating, bonded with Alyssa instantly and pushed her to move out of her comfort zone. “When I was younger, I knew no one with spina bifida. I never had anyone to tell me how life as a teenager was going to be, or how dating would be,” Misty said. “I want these kids and adults to know they are not alone, that what they are going through someone else is going through, too. That you can do anything — nothing is impossible.” After a lunch date, Misty took Alyssa to a park and told her she was going to teach her how to walk. “I had her watch the way I walked, fell down, climbed little rocks on water, and went upstairs. I stood by her side and said, ‘Let’s do this together: left foot first, now your right foot …’” Misty remembered. “Even how to fall the right way; these are things no one taught me, but I learned as I went.” Misty was also able to connect four complete strangers, all with spina bifi-

da, including Alyssa, who now support each other. “I started crying when I walked with the canes for the first time. It was so freeing to do something I didn’t know I was capable of,” Alyssa said. The breakthrough has opened up a new world of possibilities. Alyssa can do exercises, visits the mall with girlfriends, and takes daily walks of up to a mile and a half. “It is kind of amazing that I am walking more now than I ever have with my walker,” Alyssa said. But success, one step at a time, hasn’t been without low points of depression; yet, Alyssa said she is much happier now. “I try to smile and laugh — that is my coping mechanism,” she said. At 4-foot-3-inches tall, she is taking time off from school, loves to write and aspires to become a journalist. She hopes to play tennis and one day marry and have a family. “I have lots to look forward,” she said. “Spina bifida is a part of who I am and always have been. But [I will] never, ever give up.” For more information about spina bifida, visit spinabifidaassociation.org.
