Theo is a amazing 2 year old little boy who always has a smile on his face but sadly he has a condition called spastic quad cerebral palsy which means all his limbs are affected. He is extremely limited in his movement; a child of a similar age can sit, crawl, stand and walk but for this little chap he can roll over additionally his has to use makaton (a form of sign language) and body language to communicate.
He is an determined little chap who wants to be on his feet and explore like others, he can use a Kaye frame to walk short distances with supervision.
The money I hope to raise along with his parents Laura and Stuart, will go towards his general day to day life, therapies and future equipment but fingers crossed if enough is raised towards an operation either in America where the cost is £65,000 or if the NHS agree with them at a cost of £20,000.
I plan to perform a mile of press ups.......
I will do a press up then stand up, take a step forward place my hands at my feet, do another press up and so on and so on until I've have covered a mile.
I have never personally done any type of charity event certainly not physical but I feel deep down in my heart that all the money I can raise will help this little boy so he can lives as an active life as possible. So please dig deep and help.
