17 y/o Other from Luzerne, PA in need of care
Client Story
Alan, an 18-year-old boy with cerebral palsy, embodies strength and resilience as he navigates his unique challenges. Despite a two-year hiatus from school, his willingness to return, accompanied by a nurse, speaks volumes about his determination and eagerness to learn.
Weighing 120 pounds, Alan requires assistance with lifting due to his physical condition. His reliance on medication, g-tube, and colostomy underscores the importance of attentive care. His family's dedication, caring for him like a baby, ensures his comfort and well-being, even amidst his occasional distress from loud noises.
Understanding his triggers is key; loud sounds can evoke upset reactions, met with gentle redirection to a quieter space. With no food allergies, Alan's journey is supported by love, patience, and a commitment to his holistic development.
