Informational background about Marly:
Marly is now 12 years old--time is just flying by! She has a myriad of complex special needs as a result of brain damage suffered from a stroke while in utero (in the womb). She is missing vital parts of her brain that control motor function and vision. Marly also has specific health issues that require various medications on a daily basis. As a result, Marly is developmentally delayed in ALL areas.
Her various therapies have been her lifeline to achievement. Physical therapy and speech therapy have been the keys to her success. Marly has a vocabulary of over 300 words, knows her colors by SIGHT, and is identifying pictures visually and speaking in short sentences. She is getting SO very close to walking independently. We have started some additional physical therapies and are hopeful our prayers will be answered and that our little girl will be walking on her own.
Why we need your help:
It goes without saying that these therapies are EXTREMELY costly. We are spending thousands of dollars each month to provide for them as we have been denied insurance coverage throughout the years. Through your continued support, we have been able to maximize her therapies, and as a result, Marly is accomplishing things doctors and specialists labeled IMPOSSIBLE.
We are giving back and helping other children with disabilities:
What is equally amazing is that we have been able to scholarship OTHER children with developmental disabilities for both speech and physical therapy sessions. REMEMBER, "THE MORE WE GET, THE MORE WE GIVE!!"
Additionally, we will be donating a portion of the proceeds to the JAFCO Ability Center, a nonprofit organization created to support and care for those children and families with various developmental disabilities.
