My name is Oladayo, and I am the mother of a 10-year-old boy living with cerebral palsy. For the past ten years, I have devoted my life to caring for him without any financial or emotional support.
My son's name is Oluwadamisire Daniel. He was born in August 2015 after what appeared to be a normal pregnancy and delivery, with no complications. We were discharged from the hospital without a thorough examination. However, two days after we returned home, he developed severe jaundice. I immediately took him back to the hospital, but due to delays in attending to him, his condition worsened before the necessary blood transfusion was eventually carried out.
About three months later, I began noticing developmental delays and frequent abnormal stretching movements. We returned to the hospital and were referred to a special needs center for further evaluation. It was there that we were informed that my son had cerebral palsy as a result of a brain injury.
Since then, I have remained committed to his care by ensuring he attends therapy sessions, receives his prescribed medications, and gets the support he needs. Although I was employed after his birth, I eventually had to resign from my job so I could provide full-time care for him. Since then, I have been solely responsible for his therapy, medications, feeding, toiletries, and every aspect of his daily care.
As the years have gone by, the financial burden has become overwhelming. The cost of his treatment and ongoing care continues to increase, and I also have two other children to provide for. Despite my determination to give my son the best possible care, I can no longer meet all these responsibilities on my own.
I humbly appeal to kind-hearted individuals, organizations, and well-wishers for any form of assistance. Your support toward my son's feeding, medications, toiletries, therapy, and other essential needs would greatly improve his quality of life and ease the burden on our family.
No contribution is too small, and every act of kindness will be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your compassion, generosity, and support.
