Özlem was born in September,1998 as the first and only child of our family.During pregnancy doctors said she would be smaller than average but she was born as 50 cm. and 3.500 g.Her left foot was puffy at birth and after a chromosome test we learned that she is a TS child.We are tall (185cm-175cm) and she must have taken some from our genetic features.

Özlem's problems with TS for now are puffy feet,rotated ears and  horse shoe-shaped kidney.She had a  tendancy for middle ear infections until the age of five.Since then she has been OK.

Özlem was a very difficult baby.She used to have wind problem and sleeepless nights.She had her first tooth when she was 4 months old and started walking at 11 months.She has been very active.She wants to do everything by herself and doesn't like getting help.

Rather than playing with dolls or toys,she was very fond of playing with books.She learned the numbers to ten at the age of two.Then she had the joy of letters and words.She learned to read at the age of five.

Özlem goes to primary school,fourth class and likes it very much.Her relations with other children are great.She is very fond of reading.She also likes swimming,playing with computer and helping her mother in the kitchen.    

Özlem is a fan of Galatasaray Football Club.
