Story
This is Ellie, Aedáns mummy's story - "I'm beaming with joy..before aedán was one I was told he would never walk, this broke my heart! Even though aedán wasn't diagnosed til he was 3, on top of his other health needs this was confirmation for us that he would always be dependant on others and wouldn't be able to have that basic independence. Walk into my room in the morning and jump on me shouting mummy, or kick a ball like most little lads want to do but despite all of this I have made dam sure he has had the best adventures, jump, kick a ball, put his feet in the sand and in the sea. If you know aedán, you would know he just doesn't stay still his constantly wriggling all over place but his getting big and heavy and soooo tall! "o I decided that I wanted to just test something, just to give aedán a chance of the experience and for the fun of it...so iv investigated, Iv asked and been looked at like I'm mad. Tonight, a rep came round with aedáns physio after my request... In total honesty they were both lovely and accommodating but did say look I don't want you to be disheartened, however I just don't see it working or being possible. I wasn't having it, Aedán was excited and I had made him that promise that we was gona try. Tonight, I feel like I have won the lottery, Aedán I never doubted you. You have just stuck your middle finger up (yes iv gone there lol) yet again at your condition and to the medical staff... dropped the mic and dropped the rep and physio's jaws. Watch you go..there is no stopping you my little super human. YOUR AMAZING and living proof that you should never give up and never say never. Now just to find the pennies 🤣 💜💜💜💜💜💜"
Ellie is talking about an amazing walker and a trike that would give Aedán some independence and fun. The cost of this is around 2.5K and we are looking for some help towards this.
If you have gotten this far reading - Thank you! If you would like to support, an even bigger thank you, you have a big heart!
