Meet Ethen! This ten-year-old loves watching baseball and his favorite team; the Yankees. His best memory is riding Go Karts with his dad and collecting baseballs from games.
Ethen was diagnosed at two months old with a duplicate chromosome, resulting in limited strength, range of motion, and functional mobility being unable to walk, stand, or transfer without assistance. He has started using a therapy trike at his physical therapy sessions which has helped strengthen his muscles.
Ethen’s parents reached out W4K to receive help in purchasing a therapy trike so Ethen can continue on his physical therapy outside of the doctor’s office while also being more social with his neighborhood friends. Thanks to the generosity of the Punta Gorda Elks #2606 for sponsoring Ethen!!
