Stroke

Hi,dear parents

After an MRI test to the brain,it was found that my son has had a stroke.It has left the whole of his left side unresponsive.So now we are looking at having him undergo physiotherapy to address this,in addition to the dmd stretches that we give him.A stroke at eight years of age.It is just so devastating we are still yet to come to terms with it.
