Ayaan's Progress Soars at School
At Ayaan’s mother’s 13-week ultrasound, joy quickly turned to concern when her son was diagnosed with spina bifida and hydrocephalus.
The Early Intervention program at P.G. Chambers School transformed Ayaan’s development. Speech therapists helped him make great strides, enabling him to recognize questions and speech patterns, and express his needs. Physically, Ayaan gained impressive head control, lifting his head high with determination.
In preschool, Ayaan thrived in the Food Play Program. Our Powered Mobility program dramatically boosted Ayaan’s independence. Initially nervous in a powered wheelchair, he learned quickly and now navigates the school confidently.
Please show your support for Ayaan and his friends by donating to P.G. Chambers School.
