Meet Juliana!
Meet 15-year-old Juliana! Juliana was diagnosed with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy when she was only 9 months old. Mom noticed she wasn’t meeting her normal baby milestones. She is 100% dependent on others and is unable to walk or sit on her own. She currently uses a power wheelchair, but it is too big and bulky and not accessible for all environments.
Juliana is a creative and social young lady. She is a talented artist- painting and drawing are her favorite pastimes. Juliana is also a fan of musicals such as Hercules, Tangled, and The Greatest Showman. She enjoys listening to a variety of music from popular artists such as Sam Hunt, The Jonas Brothers and Ed Sheeran. Juliana also enjoys the sense of adventure of theme park rides, especially at Disney. Her favorite animal is a butterfly, which is a sign of hope; and her favorite color is yellow because it is bright like the sun, just like Juliana’s winning personality!
Juliana received a lightweight manual wheelchair, so it will be easier for her to be transported and participate in community events. Special thanks to RM Baynard for their sponsorship!
