Theme details

Capybara and sloths (Cute or Realistic style) - Capybaras are his favourite, so let's get at least one in!

Perhaps some lego on the label (legal patterns please)



Child Interests

Kerr is a massive Lego fan and has a pretty big collection - all of which he has built himself. He is also an avid gamer, this is the main way he socialises with friends outside of school.
Kerr’s favourite colour is black/grey


Biography

When Kerr was 3, we noticed him struggling to climb stairs and get up from the floor. We spoke to the Health visitor who referred him to a physio, then on to paediatrics who did various tests resulting in a diagnosis of Duchenne. Since then, Kerr has taken his diagnosis in his stride and is a happy and socially active young man.


He is part of a clinical trial involving weekly infusions, and has to deal with various different hospital appointments, but despite this, he is as cool as a cucumber and loves life!
