I wish my son could go to school – Mother expresses strong desire

March 20, 2020

Madam Vivian Danso, Mother of Yorm, said her son was not born with disability, “He had convulsion when he was five years old, which resulted in his inability to move his limbs and also his speech

Ms Danso said “We have come a long way, he used to be very stiff, he couldn’t bend his legs nor sit, we resorted to all kinds of therapy and now he is able to sit and move his limbs”

She said it remains a mystery how his son is able to read and write in English, “I did not teach him, I just realized that he could hold a pen or pencil with his legs and write and later we realised that he could used the computer using his legs.

Ms Danso urged government to create sustainable support systems and services that will promote inclusion.

Advising parents of children with disabilities, Ms Danso said children with disabilities are also gifts from God, they are gems that needs to be polished, it requires patience, persistence and hard work.
