Khalid is 5 years old; he has autism and cerebral palsy. The little boy does not speak, does not play with other children, does not understand spoken language, lacks eye contact, has not developed social and daily living skills, and cannot eat independently—only from a bottle.
This rehabilitation course for the boy included ABA therapy sessions, sensory integration, adaptive physical education, and sessions with a speech therapist-defectologist. Khalid also underwent hyperbaric oxygen therapy procedures. The combination of sessions and hardware procedures had a positive effect on both the child's overall development and his psycho-emotional state!
By the end of the intensive course, Khalid became much calmer, and the number of instances of undesirable behavior decreased. The boy also began to show interest in activities and even enjoyed following some instructions and exercises. He started responding to his own name, and his eye contact became more stable and sustained.
Khalid's gross and fine motor skills improved significantly—the boy became more confident in picking up small objects from the table! He mastered the skill of sorting and learned to correctly arrange and match identical cards. Khalid also learned to follow motor instructions, such as 'clap' and 'knock.'
Thanks to your help, Khalid completed an intensive rehabilitation course! Thank you!
