Apraxia

Owen has Childhood Apraxia Syndrome. He was diagnosed almost one month ago after three years of wondering and searching for the answer of what was wrong. Apraxia is a neurological disorder where his brain sends the signals of what he wants to say to his mouth but it gets mixed up and he can't make his mouth move the right way. He is moderately severe in his disorder. We have a very long road ahead of us to make him talk. He is seeing a private speech therapist as well as his speech therapy in school. He should be able to talk but he may never be able to say certain words. If anyone wants to learn more about Childhood Apraxia check out this website...
