Mrs Baby shares an old photo of Peter undergoing hydrotherapy.

 

“He had the right mentality – but his muscles were weak. His hands and legs couldn’t follow through,” Mrs Baby explains. But steadily, they began seeing improvements. Through regular physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, horse riding, and of course, football, Peter learnt how to balance himself and grew stronger day by day.
 

“I’ll always remember what Mrs Baby told me:
If you fall, dare to stand up again.”
– Peter Kam, CP Lions Goalkeeper
 

The biggest difference between Peter the child, and Peter the goalkeeper? “Well, now he’s a macho man!” laughs Mrs Baby. “I’m thrilled to see how he has grown up, with endurance and resilience.”

It takes a Tribe to make a difference.

To help every client go the distance, a team of social service professionals takes every step with them. Mrs Baby explains: “Like Peter, every child works with a rehabilitation team – consisting of a physiotherapist, occupational therapist, speech-language therapist, psychologist and more. They create individual care plans, and set achievable goals.”

Of course, parents have an important role to play in these teams as well. With their support, everyone can reach out to greater possibilities.
