 Hi! My name is Michael and I am a 10 year daredevil.
You may have seen me speeding around Grandview with my walker or running around near my house in Ajax. When I was 1, I was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and a profound hearing loss. But that hasn't stopped me from being active and having fun.
Grandview Children's Centre has helped me get the equipment I need to be as independent as possible. I got my first walker when I was about 2 and have gone through a few since then. I love walking super fast and having people tell me to slow down! Sometimes even my brother and sister can't catch me! My therapists sometimes worry that I am going too fast but I am pretty careful.
