Ella’s Story

Meet two-year-old Ella, a darling girl who has immense challenges. She was diagnosed with Edwards syndrome, a chromosomal disorder. She has very low muscle tone and cannot sit upright without complete support. Another frustration for her is the inability to speak. Ella’s illnesses still do not prevent her from achieving happiness.

Ella finds ways to be peaceful. She listens to and watches praise and worship music and programs. Sometimes she likes being outside, especially when hitching a wagon-ride: she loves to travel! Her favorite book is titled “Oh the Places You’ll Go,” by Dr. Seuss. On a wagon or in a book, Ella is excited to take the journey!

Wheelchairs 4 Kids is requesting a specialized tricycle for Ella. The adaptive trike has hand and foot controls that are designed to improve Ella’s strength and coordination. She will also have a great time riding on the trike while getting the therapeutic benefits of exercising. Please be a sponsor for her soon!
