Colombian-born, 40-year-old Santi from Perth was diagnosed with limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2A in 2014, and his condition is slowly weakening the muscles in his hips, shoulders and arms.
It impacts his mobility and makes it harder for him to do regular everyday tasks. Simple things like walking, showering, dressing, preparing meals and doing his own washing has become difficult, taking away more time in his day.
Grateful to live in Australia and have access to a life-changing NDIS, Santi said so many aspects of his life have improved.
‘The NDIS has meant a lot to me. Since I’ve been part of it, many aspects of my life have changed. Now I have access to do things I never believed I could’.
