Hello. Oh, 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 with an unknown disorder, this boy was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 different, with a mysterious condition that remains unknown.

His limbs, arm and legs don’t function well.

His mother has been lifting him for eight years.

Some schools rejected him, saying he would be a burden to them.

His mother lost hope.

She failed to provide tuition for him, but this is her last hope.

Meet an eight-year-old who was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 different.

Make up your mind that no matter what comes your way, no matter how difficult, no matter how unfair, you will do more than simply survive.

You will thrive in spite of it.

Life is not easy of any of us.

But what of that?

We must have perseverance and, above all, confidence in ourselves.

We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained.

My son, Prince, is the first 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧.

He was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in 2012.

He was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 lame.

Both arms and legs are disabled.

That means he doesn’t walk easily like anyone else.

He has to crawl or else i have to lift him.

After he was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧, doctors told me i have delivered a 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 who is abnormal and they urged me to make a follow-up on his life, that after some time he might start working as normal.

So i did whatever possible way for my boy to come to normal.

There are some health experts i met who gave him physiotherapy treatment to restore, maintain and make the most of princess mobility, function and have healthy fitness.

A period of physiotherapy came to an end and doctors concluded that my son needs a surgery and should be operated, and that’s why our treatment journey ended, because the surgery fee was not affordable to us.

We had given everything we had, whether as a family and some other relatives who contributed, but we could not make it.

Those experts said that only a foundation could help us.

We went to different foundations and organizations, but none of those foundations helped.

When we saw that a surgery is not possible at that moment, i decided to take him in the physiotherapy to see whether he can have fitness.

I could always take him there and after a period of one year i ran out of money, but doctors had concluded that the only solution to my boy’s condition was a surgery.

I went almost everywhere seeking help, within churches, streets, market, everywhere, but all in vain.

I stopped taking prince to the hospital since 2013 up to now, in 2020, the stage where other 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren tried to stand between 6 and 7 months.

He could only see it.

I had to stop some activities and keep lifting him or carry him in the back the whole day, where there’s some few activities that i had to do.

While carrying him in my park when Prince had more than one year, that’s when he started going the way he does today and play with kids of the same age-

I started putting him in the basin so as to make strong his back and see if his back would be strong enough to let him sit.

Well, i had to bring him some toys to distract him and, by God’s mercy, he was able to sit.

I was happy seeing him seated, other than sleeping the whole day, as i did before.

When i produced him, his legs were somewhat carved and bent inside, but after helping him with physiotherapy, began becoming straight, not bent as before, and legs became fit and strong, and later he started being able to wear.

Before he could not wear, i would dress him with a shirt and it could become a scarf, but now he wears each and everything

And they fit him.

Sam applies to shoes.

By now he can wear shoes.

That’s one of the positive impact from the physiotherapy.

Since his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥hood, his arms don’t function.

They also Lamb whenever it was lunch time.

Even when i could be doing a sudden activity, i had to stop and come feed him food and make him eat because he couldn’t manage.

But as years passed, i started teaching him how to try and handle a spoon and eat.

I could teach him doing so and later he went on getting used.

He now is by himself.

 

He started lifting a cup of porridge with his teeth slowly by slurry.

He adapted to eat and right now i don’t have to stop whatever i’m doing

Then i have to give him what to eat.

All i do is prepare them and put them where he can reach so that he can serve himself whenever i have other activities to do.

But now, as he grows, he’s adapting to play with other kids.

He no longer feels shy to join them as before.

Now they play dance, shout and talk together.

When he was still a 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦, i thought he also have a certain mental problem.

But now seeing him join others on his will and have fun together prove to me that he has no any other problem apart from the disability.

By when he was five or six years, i started searching for his school, but as long as he could not even walk and he was a bit younger.

Not even a single school welcomed him.

Schools would say he can be a barrier to other students who are studying.

They say he needs an extra person to take care of him.

I kept on searching a school that can give him education but failed.

Later i found a school that teaches 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren with disability, but that school requested a lot of money for his coffees, of which i can’t afford to pay.

Those kind of schools have people who take care on 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren who are disabled and more especially the younger ones and their boarding schools.

But due to lack of enough money i was not able to afford my son’s school fees.

That’s the reason why he has never attended any class lesson, though he’s now eight years old.

I have always wished that my son, prince, would get a chance and have a quality education, but before that his treatment is still a priority.

I wish he could get the surgery needed for him to fully recover.

Seeing him work upright would be the only thing to make us happy and proud of our boy.

We as parents.

That’s the only mean of movement he has, which is pushing himself like that.

If he reaches where he can manage to pass, we come and lift him like if it rains when i’m not around, he tries to go to a nearby shelter.

If there is something hindering or blocking his movement, he stays and it rains on him.

Prince has a special gift of listening to the radio and crumbs what they’re talking about, and after meantime he can tell you all what they have said, and he also manages to listen songs and repeat after them.
