This beautiful eyed fellow is Zlaty. He was born in December of 2018 and is diagnosed with Spina Bifida. He has hydrocephalus but has an implanted ventricle-peritoneal shunt. Unfortunately, the Spina Bifida has left him without the use of his lower legs. Our Eastern European staff who met Zlaty said “he is a very sweet boy who is making progress in his development. He is doing very well emotionally and has no deficits. He is saying more and more words.” We will be receiving new info, photos and video soon so please check back often.
Information from April of 2023 says Zlaty can turn his head in the direction of sound. He picks up toys near him and transfers the toy from one hand to the other. He looks for the toy when he drops it. He can knock two cubes together. When offered verbal contact and attention from an adult known to him, he laughs loudly. He is learning some words such as “am-am”, “give”, “enough”, “grandma”. etc. He points to parts of his body and recognizes his image in a mirror. He has very positive contacts with children and adults and often initiates them. For more information contact kathy@wiaa.org. Grant funding is available for qualifying families.
