Aaron

It’s hard not to smile when you meet this handsome 11 year old, since Aaron, from Hudson, FL, is always giggling and even asks for a hug as a way of saying “Hello!” Aaron has 11 different diagnoses, yet remains very happy and affectionate through doctors appointments, injections and medications. Being non-verbal with epilepsy and an Immune system deficiency, Aaron’s DREAM is to have a sensory room at home where his OT and ABA therapists can provide his 30-hour a week therapy at home, instead of driving across town to an office. The goal is to provide an indoor swing, bubble tube and a ball pit for sensory play. This dream will benefit him by providing indoor exercise with the swing, having access to occupational therapy equipment and giving him the lights and sounds for sensory output. A quiet corner will give him a place to relax after an epilepsy episode with soothing music. As a pre-teen that craves his own space, this will be the first time Aaron will have a room to call his own that he doesn’t have to share with his autistic, younger brother, Bubba! Can you help Aaron’s dream for a sensory room come true?
