Inspiring stories from our patients and families.

The Story of Daniel’s Dance
Submitted by Daniel's grandmother, Debbie McLeise of Meadowview, Virginia 

My grandson, Daniel, age 11, is faced with the many challenges from having cerebral palsy. Daniel has been seeing Stephanie Gibson for the past four years. We began our journey with him in need of assistance in almost everything he did. With a contagious, joyful spirit, Stephanie has interacted with him in a way that seems more like playing rather than “hard work.” Daniel arrives ready to work and leaves with a smile on his face each and every session. Her efforts have brought him from the wheelchair to his walker.
