William is the 13 -year-old son of
Matt and Jennifer Irwin of Dungan-
non. He has cerebral palsy and been
receiving the loving care of his par-
ents in his home. As he grows this is
becoming more of a challenge to be
done comfortably for all involved.
The Cerebral Palsy Alliance in Aus-
tralia states, "Cerebral palsy (CP) is
an umbrella term that refers to a
group of disorders affecting a per-
son's ability to move. It is a perma-
nent life-long condition, but gener-
ally does not worsen over time. It is
due to damage to the developing
brain either during pregnancy or
shortly after birth.
Cerebral palsy affects people in dif-
ferent ways and can affect body move-
ment, muscle control, muscle coordi-
nation, muscle tone, reflex, posture
and balance." The Alliance advises
that CP is the most common physical
disability in childhood.
To enable the Irwins to continue to
provide daily care they will need
some specialized equipment and an
addition to their home to house the
needed systems required. The addi-
tion would house a rail system for lift-
ing and moving, a chair lift, bed and
shower facilities, a change table and
other minor amenities and features to
help William be more comfortable in
his home. This addition would have
the added benefit of giving William
more mobility in his home as he is
now confined to one small area.
