A warm winter coat for Nora to get in some exercise!

Posted Aug 12, 2022
Nora has experienced substantial progress learning how to walk, which she does with one hand holding onto the Registered nurse. Nora has been practicing her walking indoors and is just getting ready to start moving outside. She would love to play in leaves in the Fall and snow in the Winter if her mobility progresses enough by that time. She is a bubbly little girl and we would live to her a warm winter jacket to explore the outdoors in!

Nora is 11 years old and lives in NY

Despite dealing with complex medical issues since birth, Nora is a jovial, loving and lively child. Nora has been living in a hospital since she was born. Nora is currently stable and doing well with feeding therapy and speech. Nora is also diagnosed with down-syndrome. Nora uses a g-tube and can only consume purees and thickened liquids.
