"This therapy will help with Louie’s difficulties with everyday life and give him the best chance of an independent life.
“Louie is a kind hearted, loving, funny little boy, but as parents seeing his everyday frustrations with his struggles is tough.
"This therapy will hopefully be the start to overcoming this.”

“It’s wonderful news to hear that Louie’s therapy is able to start, and we wish them all the best for the future.”
