Isla’s Story
Isla was born four weeks premature, weighing only three pounds, fifteen ounces. Fortunately, she was healthy and remained in the neonatal intensive care unit for only three weeks. Once home, though, Isla’s parents noticed that she was not meeting all of her developmental milestones. After a visit to a neurologist and a brain MRI, her parents learned that Isla had underdeveloped white matter in her brain, a condition that lead to her diagnosis of ataxic cerebral palsy and global developmental delays. Watch how hard she works to reach beyond the boundaries that nature set for her. She is a special girl who doesn’t understand the word, “cant.”
