Girl with Special Needs Gets Birthday Car Parade After Trip Was Canceled Due to Coronavirus Blythedale
Her initial prognosis was dim — doctors told the Cunninghams that Kiki likely wouldn’t be able to sit up or move on her own again.
After months of therapies at Blythedale Children’s Hospital in Westchester County, Kiki is able to sit up, stand and walk a little. She’s even joined her church’s cheerleading squad, one of her favorite sports before the stroke. “My husband served in the military, then Keira got sick, so our family has become very good at adapting to new situations,” Lauren says. “This is just another challenge, like, ‘Okay, this is what we’re dealing with now.’”
“Kids are super proud to show the therapists their world, too: their siblings, their bedroom, their stuffed animals,” he tells PEOPLE.
