Caleb was nominated by his teacher, Ms. Doris, and school for the Kiwanis Award. This award is for special needs kiddos and recognizing their accomplishments and improvements. He is loved by everyone at his school and it was so sweet to hear they had nominated him. The ceremony was today and they read the letter his teacher wrote for the nomination at the ceremony. I fought back the tears, it was beautiful!
Caleb did well throughout the ceremony until everyone clapped. Thank goodness he was the first kiddo, because after everyone clapped for him he cried (one of his sensory aversions that we think dates back to when the IV team would finally get an IV we would all cheer) and he was scared to go back to the area where they had the ceremony. He didn't want to take part in the group picture either for the paper :( but he did great. We are so very proud of him. He is one amazing kid! He has taught me so so much. We love you Caleb and are so proud of you!
Right before the ceremony started! How cute is he?!?!
Sorry about the hand in the picture. Oops!
He still wasn't sure what was going on! Awesome ceremony!
God Bless you all!!
God Bless Caleb and Camryn!!
Caleb was born with two rare syndromes, CHARGE and DiGeorge. Caleb is the 6th person in the world born with both syndromes. CHARGE is a multisystem-effecting syndrome which can cause several severe anomolies. DiGeorge prevented Caleb from developing an immune system. He spent over a year straight in the hospital, had multiple surgeries with a possibility of having more in the future. This blog details his heroic journey and story. God Bless Caleb!!
