Baron is All Smiles at Mealtime and Beyond
Baron is a 22-month-old boy who loves to smile and laugh. He brings sunshine and joy to his family daily; they call him “Mr. Smiles.” He loves his older brother and being held by his dad. He isn’t crawling yet, but he is moving more each day and wants to be part of the family action.
Baron has Cerebral Palsy and global developmental delays. As a result of his delays, Baron is not sitting or standing independently. Baron relies on caregivers for transitions and is unable to hold his head up or maintain head control without support. As a result, he needs assistance with daily feeding and mealtime routines.
Baron’s family requested a portable, postural support seat which supports his overall bone health, respiratory health and GI function. The Firefly Go-To Seat enables him to eat sitting upright on the floor or at the table with the family. When using the seat, he is now able to sit up and play with his brother. Even better, the seat is portable and can be attached to his wagon so he can sit upright for walks and go outside to watch his dad coach soccer. To all who support Love Fund, thank you for helping the family reach their goal of engaging Baron in family activities!
“The Firefly Go-To Seat gives him the confidence and autonomy to feel included.”
