Chloe is five years old and is just like any other typical five-year-old; she loves playing outside, watching movies, and going to the pool! She started coming to Easter Seals when she was three years old and received occupational and speech therapy.
"When Chloe was diagnosed there were feelings of grief/loss; but there was also a feeling of relief as we now knew the cause and reasons for Chloe’s behavior and we could start getting her the help she needed,” said Chloe’s mom. The beginning of the process was the hardest on Chloe’s family. However, they adjusted to their new “normal” and things got easier.
Chloe struggled with sensory issues and hygiene tasks, as well as fine motor skills. She also had speech and articulation difficulties. With the help of Easter Seals, Chloe overcame these obstacles! Getting Chloe ready in the morning is much easier now and she is doing more tasks on her own. A lot of her sensory issues have improved and her speech is also much better. All of these accomplishments are because of her hard work and the help she received from Easter Seals and her school.
A few words from Chloe’s mom:
" We love Chloe and her quirky personality and wouldn’t change her for the world. Having supports in place made a huge difference in our experience. We were very blessed to have a supporting family, friends, community, school and of course, Easter Seals!”
