The life with Chiari a moms eye view.

"
My Daughter Threw Mom Eyes
My Daughter is the bravest sole
My Daughter sole has not been taken.
My Daughter  suffers but dose not control
My Daughter head is out of control but does not have her sole

My Daughter mom that I am
My Daughters mom will do anything she can
My Daughter Mom yes I am
My Daughter pain I would take
My Daughter Chiari will not  brake
My Daughter  Chiari doctor says take a brake
My Daughter say it will not brake her
My daughters Mom lies awake

My Daughter's Chiari
My Daughter brain is aerie
My Daughter eye are teary
My Daughter spine is weary
This all because of Chiari!!

It can cause headaches, fatigue, muscle weakness, difficulty swallowing (sometimes accompanied by gagging), choking and vomiting, dizziness, nausea, tinnitus, impaired coordination, neck pain, unsteady gait (problems with balance), poor hand coordination (fine motor skills), numbness and tingling of the hands and feet, and speech problems (such as hoarseness).
