Vladik was born at 37 weeks through a scheduled cesarean section. The boy was very calm, slept a lot. At 4 months he started having epileptic seizures. After examination "epilepsy" was diagnosed. At the age of 2,6, Vladik was given a disability with diagnoses of ZPD, epilepsy, difficult farsighted astigmatism, emotional-volitional disorders, dysarthria.
Vladik spoke closer to 4 years old, for a long time did not understand spoken speech, did not answer "yes" and "no", could not play with children. Now there are problems with his behavior, communication with close people and peers.
Vladik does not go to kindergarten, but he needs constant lessons. The boy's mother raises him alone, but despite that she puts a lot of effort and money into his rehabilitation:
Every year Vladik goes to dolphin therapy, is engaged in aqua rehabilitation, ayuverda, with a neurologist, hippotherapy, on a rock climbing wall, with a neuropsychologist.
His mom's dream is to "pull" the boy into school, but due to behavioral problems and his excessive emotionality, he does not make friends with children of his age.
Now Vladik is six years old. He has already been through a lot and still has a lot to go through, and we cannot stop there. The boy really needs help from an ABA specialist to help solve his behavior problems.
