10 year old Dibyanshu (Name changed), who is deafblind and has locomotor disability, was dependent on her mother for his day to activity. A good education seemed to be a far fetched Idea to his parents but now, things has changed , to quote his mother “Dipu is enjoying whole day in the classroom”.
Aaina took responsibility of him last year. His physiotherapy began with the prelimnary treatment that included, making her able to walk using a walker and teach him sign language. A year after our intervention, he was able to take those few steps out of his disability. He has now learned sign language and is able to convey his though effectively. Our goal is to exploit his true potential as an artist. He is gifted with his remarkable ability to sketch his dreams on paper. With our sessions and interaction, He is now able to understand verbal communication through lip reading and can understand upto 100 words.
Our next phase of intervention is to enable him to walk without anybody’s support and be able to excell in his endevour to be an artist.
