Where Donavon is Today





Donavon is thriving at home. He is in all 4 therapies PT, OT, Speech, and Developmental. His face lights up when we get to therapy, he loves to learn new things. He talks often and the one word that we understand is "hey" which he says with much gusto. We were able to take him off of his oxygen in January. He still remains on a feed pump, but he recently passed his swallow study on the first try. We are feeding him small amounts of thick baby food twice a day and working our way up. His Neurologist told us about a month and a half ago that he has Cerebral Palsy which is a result of the brain bleeds. We were glad to get an answer on this so that he can move forward. He has several pieces of equipment as well as braces for his ankles and splints for his hands to help him progress. I will be posting what I learn about Cerebral Palsy in the future. He is such a trooper, God has been so good to us and we are excited about the future. He has come so far and continues to amaze us, with his determination he will go far in life!
