Madeline participates in a Swim Therapy program that is designed for children with special needs. It is funded by a grant so the whole thing is at no cost to us. The program runs from April thru October and it is every Saturday for 40 minutes. Madeline goes with her Daddy, mainly becomes Mommy is not to fond of getting in the pool in public. Madeline has been participating in this program since she was two, and she absolutely loves it and gets excited when Saturday rolls around. Grant gets in the water with her and he becomes her life preserver. Madeline's confidence level has increased through Swim Therapy. Not only is she getting stronger, but she gets a little more comfortable around the water as each year goes on. We are so glad for this program that allows Madeline to do things that other kids get to enjoy. Hopefully we can find more programs out there that are designed for special needs children....still looking for some.
