2023 football classic

 Madelynn was born with bilateral cleft lip and alveolar ridge. This started the journey of 7 surgeries and multiple other procedures. She began seeing Shriners Children's Hospital in Houston and Galveston in January 2022 to get better specialized cleft care that she couldn't receive locally. She began orthodontics 2-years ago and in this time has worn headgear, a palate expander, braces and a retainer. It is a long journey ahead, but her parents love her "million dollar smile!" 

 Madelynn is 11 years old. Close family and friends call her Maddie Sue. She loves playing with her kitty, Ginger, and the chickens and ducks. Madelynn also enjoys the outdoors, dancing, baking, swimming, and doing flips on her trampoline. 

She is looking forward to playing the flute in 6th grade.
