Aria Makes Progress With Aicardi Syndrome
June 16, 2017
Our beautiful daughter Aria was born January 2014 and has kept us very busy as any child does. She has the diagnosis of Aicardi Syndrome, a rare disorder that typically only appears in females since the abnormality occurs in the X-chromosome. This syndrome causes several eye abnormalities along with a lot of other accommodative diagnoses. We sought out VIPS to start school because of all the positive feedback we had received from other families and therapists. We love seeing the progress she has made since being there. Thanks to all the wonderful teachers, assistants, therapists, and anyone else who makes Aria’s day when she is at school.

Dallas’s mom really wanted him to be able to play independently. During a recent visit, we explored several switch options that would activate a toy. After a few attempts, he got the hang of it and was able to activate the switch on his own! The smile says it all! Way to go Dallas! We are so proud of you!
