Lachlan to America

Description

Hi my name is Lachlan Stretton. I am 3 and have Cerebral Palsy - Spastic Triplegia.

I was fortunate enough to win an Intense Therapy in Florida, USA for use during October 22 - November 9, 2012, to give me the chance of walking. All that is covered in the prize is the therapy, no Accommodation or Flights.

I want to keep surprising my doctors. On the day of my diagnosis my parents were told I would be a vegetable for the rest of my life. Here I am at 3 years of age talking, commando crawling, using a standing frame, feeding myself and also being able to take 2 steps as long as I am supported by my dad.

My family is my Mum Kylie & Dad Bradley. I also have 3 siblings, my brothers are Kain 10 & Blake 4. I also have a little sister Nataliya who is 18mths.

Due to having a disability and also my brother Blake having a high needs diet, both my parents are full time Disability Carers, living on the Disability Carers Pension and they are unable to fund the journey to America themselves.

So can you please help me get to Florida?
