Hope springs eternal
for
cerebral palsy patients |
|
By Johanna M. Sampan
My eldest brother, JS, is a
teacher for special children. Day after day he shares the classroom
with them and treat them like any other ordinary kid in school. But
of course, he treats them with more patience and understanding. He
always tells me that teaching the kids bring him mixed emotions of
joy, fulfillment and sometimes helplessness because he can’t be
there for all of them at the same time as a teacher. He also shares
that he has so much love and respect for the parents of these
special children who continue to show selflessness and unconditional
love and affection.
Unconditional love—this is the
main reason why Richard and Izabela Koscienly, both physical
therapists, flew thousands and thousands of miles just to find a
cure for their beautiful daughter Kaya. She was born prematurely and
diagnosed with cerebral palsy—a neurological disorder that causes
physical immobilization on human growth and affects the person’s
movement, speech, progress and posture.
