\n More information about Ryan.
\n Ryan Dellascio was born with a rare brain disorder called Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum. \; It means the band of white matter connecting the two hemispheres in the brain failed to develop. As a result of this disorder\, Ryan suffers from seizures\, feeding difficulties (he needs to be fed through a feeding tube)\, and severe developmental delays\, as well as recurring respiratory problems which has been the main cause for his repeated hospitalizations.
\n \;
\n This summer has been particularly difficult for him. He has been admitted to Boston Children'\;s Hospital 6 times and each time for at least 2 weeks\, including his current stay right now. \; Throughout all of his journeys\, he remains the happy little fighter he has always been.
\n \;
\n The money that is raised would help with the financial strain of traveling back and forth to the hospital all the time. \; It will also help with anything the family may need to purchase\, in the future\, that will assist in his day-to-day life.
\n \;
\n Ryan is 5 years old. He is going into Kindergarten at the LABBB Collaborative at Francis Wyman. His sister\, Madelyn is 8 years old. She is going into the 3rd Grade at Pine Glen. She'\;s a very active\, busy girl. She is a Burlington Pop Warner cheerleader and also does tumbling and dance classes. Ryan and Madelyn have a very special bond. He lights up anytime she'\;s around him. She always gets the biggest laughs out of him. She has had a very hard time adjusting to him being in the hospital most of the summer! \; She has missed him so much!
