Hi my name is John Stamoulos, from time to time I come across people who are struggling in there lives and i wish i could do more for every single one i come across- in the past i worked as a therapist for Australian Paralympic teams and at world events i saw young Paralympic athletes suffer from not having the right care and support from underdeveloped countries- Recently i was in Kenya and came across this young 16 year old boy who is a cousin of a friend of mine Joseph Chweya. This is a little bit about this young person....
Wayne Chweya, originally from Nakuru County, Kenya, is on the verge of celebrating his 17th birthday, having recently turned 16. He faces the challenges posed by childhood cerebral palsy (CP), which confines him to a wheelchair and limits his mobility. Despite these constraints, Wayne radiates a joyful spirit.
He has a particular fondness for foods like greens, milk, ugali, rice, and fruits. Additionally, he finds happiness in singing, watching football matches, and immersing himself in action movies.
Wayne's primary caregiver is his devoted single mother Daphne, who has dedicated her entire life to his well-being. She made a profound sacrifice when she realized that Wayne wasn't receiving the adequate care he needed while attending a school for disabled children. Consequently, she made the difficult decision to remove him from that environment to personally attend to his needs, especially as his health was deteriorating.
Her level of commitment is a testament to the profound depths of parental love. However, this path is filled with challenges. Providing Wayne with round-the-clock care has limited her ability to work full-time. Furthermore, living in a third-world country means that neither she nor Wayne receives any form of government assistance or benefits. Her primary financial responsibilities include covering the costs of Wayne's personal hygiene necessities, such as pads, and his crucial physiotherapy sessions, which play a pivotal role in ensuring Wayne's health and comfort.
Any form of support, whether it be financial or otherwise, would make a substantial difference in assisting Wayne and his mother. Such support would significantly enhance Wayne's quality of life and enable his mother to continue providing him with the attentive care he needs.
Lets do what we can to create some funds for Wayne's mother Daphne to be able to have some financial relief to be able to take a deep breath and help her with some financial assistance with his day to day care. I thank you form my heart for any contributions you can make to assist this family.
Hi my name is John Stamoulos, from time to time I come across people … John Stamoulos needs your support for Donate to help and support Wayne Chweya in Kenya
