Luke was born March 8, 2007. The pregnancy was uncomplicated, as well as the birth. We had ourselves another beautiful little boy, in addition to big brother Cody, just 15 months old. We couldn’t be happier.
Around 4 months old, we noticed that Luke was very “stiff”. The pediatrician thought that maybe it was due to his acid reflux. A month later, Luke was still very stiff, his hands fisted constantly. He also wasn’t rolling over, or lifting his head up when on his belly. We saw another pediatrician who recommended a Physical Therapist examine him. We were told he had low muscle tone and would need physical and occupational therapy. A month later, we saw a neurologist and Luke received the diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy.
Luke is now nearly 16 months old and full of life and joy. He is a happy child who loves his family, swimming, reading books, and playing with his new puppy. He is quite the charmer with a smile to light up everything around him. He currently receives physical, occupational, speech, and aqua therapy.
Cody, now 2, is a very silly and happy boy. He loves to read and play with all his trucks and cars. Lastly, he absolutely adores his new puppy. He loves his little brother, but I think sometimes is still trying to figure him out!!
Family is everything to Clint and I, we will do all we can to give our children the best life possible. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers
