“I first became aware of FAS in 1973, when I was a school nurse in an elementary school in Washington D.C. I had a 5 or 6-year-old child who did not seem to be doing well in school, did not grow, and had very unusual facial characteristics. The school counselor and I were very concerned. It was at that time that I happened to go to a conference at Howard University, where I learned about fetal alcohol syndrome, and I have to say that it was an eye-opener that changed my life.
