Why I walk for Apraxia Kids!
I walk for my son.
At just 4 years old, he faces something most people have never even heard of Childhood Apraxia of Speech. It means that even though he knows what he wants to say, his brain and his mouth don’t always work together to make the words come out.
Something so simple for many, saying “I love you,” asking for help, telling a story,can take incredible effort, patience, and courage.
But if you know my son, you know this does not define him.
I walk because I see how hard he works every single day.
I walk because every word he gains is a victory worth celebrating.
I walk because he deserves to be understood, to be heard, and to feel confident using his voice.
I walk for the countless hours of speech therapy, the repetition, the determination, and the small moments that are actually huge milestones.
I walk to raise awareness,so more people understand what apraxia is, and so other families don’t feel alone on this journey.
Most of all, I walk because my son is strong, resilient, and full of so much to say.
And I will always walk beside him, every step of the way.
