HOLIDAY WISH

An iPad for Kyren who is learning in therapy

Posted Dec 22, 2022
Kyren has been in Occupational Therapy for a while and is slowly making progress. He will be starting a new program through OT that his grandparents and therapist are excited about for him. An iPad would really be the best tool for him to have for home use of his new program. The program he is starting combines NASA inspired brain monitoring technology with a vast toolkit that addresses everything from cognitive development to self regulation. He would benefit so much from having this iPad for therapy and could use it for his homeschool and virtual classes as well.

Kyren is 11 years old and lives in AL

Kyren is unbelievably smart and knows everything there is to know about almost every dinosaur. He is a Math whiz and asks to do Math problems for fun. He could fish all day long and catches some pretty nice size bass all on his own. Bigger than his grandpa catches! He has been swimming and diving since he was 3. He loves bugs and frogs and turtles. He had a very traumatic start in life though and was born with a long list of illegal drugs in his system which kept him in the NICU withdrawing for almost 2 months where he coded twice. He suffered a lot of abuse and neglect and was locked in a room for days while his bios were on drug binges. He was finally removed when baby sister was born addicted and placed with his grandparents the next morning where he has been since. He was soon diagnosed with Autism then severe ADHD, PTSD, SPD, RAD and ODD soon followed. But this little guy is a trooper and will make his mark on the world one day.
