Sally’s story

Author By Merryn PearcePosted on
It was with both relief and sadness that we learnt of her diagnosis. Of course we knew there was very likely an underlying cause for her long hospital admission and difficult start to life. What the diagnosis has meant for her is that she has had access to early intervention since she was a newborn and is doing remarkably well.
