Our
son, Sage, is a kind, loving, inquisitive five-year-old. He loves crabs,
swinging in our garden hammock and playing with his sisters. Sage has a genetic
‘misspelling’ of a gene called SCN8A. This means he has delays in movement and communication,
along with other diagnoses including epilepsy and autism. Sage changed our
world; he opened our eyes to the beauty in the small and simple things, and the true gift
of seeing and experiencing the world differently. He is an incredible kid who
continues to smash every expectation and limit set by his care team.
I work as a researcher at Cerebral Palsy Alliance, and my work focuses on new and innovative treatments for children with cerebral palsy and developmental disabilities. I believe in equity and opportunity for every child. Every child deserves a voice, ‘a seat at the table’, an opportunity to participate fully and meaningfully in the things that are important to them. Your donations will help to make this a reality for millions of children, like our Sage. Thank you for your support as Sage and I aim to hit 10,000+ steps a day over the month of September!
