Please Help

When Zach was 18 months old we knew something wasn't right with his ability to communicate as he could only make very few sounds. At that point we had a wonderful SLP who believed he had Apraxia.

It wasn't until 2 months ago (just shy of Zach turning 2) that he received his official diagnosis from a developmental pediatrician - he indeed has "Childhood Apraxia of Speech"

No one can tell us why he has Apraxia. No one can tell us if or when it will get better and when Zach will be able to communicate verbally 100% of the time.

Zach has been in ST for over 6 months now and is making progress but for every step forward he takes steps backwards too.

We know that Apraxia is a neurological issue but without many people having knowledge that Apraxia exists there isn't much being done to help these children to learn why it is happening and how to fix it.

Please you can help by donating or spreading the word around about Apraxia.

Please forward this link to everyone you know! The more people who become aware of Apraxia, the more of a voice these children will have!!!

Thank you!
