Angus’s Story
Born 9 weeks early via emergency C-section following mam suffering from pre-eclampsia and weighing in at only 3lb 1oz, Angus required blue light therapy, ventilation, a feeding tube, and anti-biotics. He didn’t get to go home until he was 6 ½ weeks old. At 8 month old parents started notice issues with Angus and his function of his left side, after a paediatric assessment a month later he was diagnosed with Left hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy and a leg discrepancy. Angus has increased tone and a stiff left arm due to the CP.
Angus loves cars, animals, books, songs and generally being outside. He is not so keen on messy things.
