Hello, my name is D'Neeko Thompson (nickname: Neeko).  I was born July 23, 2003 with a chromosome 13 abnormality.  Despite the many surgeries and procedures I have endured, I still have a reason SMILE!   I have my family that gives me love, hope, encouragement, and support which have allowed me to be independently mobile and involved in everyday life.

I love swimming, animals, movies and enjoy visiting the aquarium. I have a passion for music and dancing. Listening to music boost my morale and is a huge part of my personality.

I am currently 15 years old.  I was recently honored and awarded as a 2018 Super Star. A special thanks to Carl Ducena and Tina Chandler of 'Normal To Be Fit' who were my sponsors.
