Children with cerebral palsy are more likely to experience hearing loss than other children. In fact, research shows that about 15–20% of children with CP have some form of hearing impairment. Without proper treatment, hearing loss can lead to challenges in language development and social interactions as they grow older.

Let’s all say hi to today’s , Makailah…an 8-year-old who is more than a diagnosis—she’s a miracle.

After a traumatic brain injury, her family was given a list of things she might never do. Today, she lives with complex medical needs, including cerebral palsy, but her life is defined by strength, purpose, and resilience—not limitations. Makailah loves music, soft, fuzzy socks, being around people who love, and making others smile with her sweet personality.

She may not speak with words, but her smile, spirit, and determination say everything. Makailah inspires us to celebrate every small victory, push for inclusion, and find joy even in the hardest moments.

She is, and always will be, a miracle.

Today we’re proud to welcome an incredible , Philip! After hearing grim prognoses from doctors early in his life, his mother made a powerful decision—she told caregivers to stop predicting his lifespan.

Today, Philip is 62 years old and living a happy life. “We have been truly blessed to have Philip in our lives for far longer than anyone expected,” says his brother, Mark.

Though Philip lives with profound physical and intellectual disabilities, he embraces the things he loves—going to the movies, “bowling” (in his own way), playing slots at the casino (with surprising skill), and watching his favorite TV shows.
