Farhad is a bright seven-year-old and the third child in his family. However, unlike his siblings, he has faced significant challenges since birth due to Cerebral Palsy, which limited his ability to walk, speak, and control his movements. Although he could sit independently, he struggled to express himself, causing emotional distress and social isolation. His mother recalls being terrified upon hearing his diagnosis and, for years, relying only on medication and neurological care while watching him gesture that he wanted to play with other children and go to school like his brother and sister.
Hope arrived when a neurologist referred them to our partner organization, where Farhad was welcomed with warmth and compassion. Despite crying on his first day, he quickly began to trust the staff. Through consistent rehabilitation, Farhad achieved remarkable progress: he learned to stand up from a chair independently, gained better control over his arm movements, now stands without a brace or corset, communicates his needs through gestures and sounds, and actively plays and participates with peers. These milestones have transformed his daily life and brought his family immense joy and renewed hope. Today, his mother speaks about his future with confidence, saying she is inspired by his progress and believes he will one day attend school and achieve great things.
