Once again, Valentine's Day will come a week early for hundreds of Central New York fathers and daughters.

When Chad Guiliano was born it was immediately known that he would have developmental delays.

The Central New York resident was born with Noonan's Syndrome, a developmental disability.

Early on, "His doctors didn't think that he would live very long. They thought he would be lucky if he made it to age 10," his mother, Sandra DuBuke remembers. "I guess we proved them wrong. Doctors said he would never walk or talk and he did it all." {Full Story}
