Diagnosed with an overgrowth syndrome in utero called Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome, this now 7 year old twin boy has severe, confounding additional conditions, including cerebral palsy, global developmental delay, autism spectrum disorder, chronic lung disease and was born with a diaphragmatic hernia that required surgery at just 5 days old. He has required numerous surgeries on his legs, tendons, botox injections for muscle spasms and numerous dental surgeries and will likely require more surgeries as he grows.
This young boy likes action figures and wants to be a superhero when he grows up. He is an avid reader and will often read for hours on his own. He enjoys telling stories, comic books, Lego and is obsessed with Mine Craft. He and his brother both enjoy the water and swimming.
Alberta Dreams cannot wait for this wonderful family to blast off on a mini vacation at the space themed room in WEM where they can explore a year round tropical beach, the rides of Galaxyland, explore the restaurants and visit with Cosmo the mascot.
