Nothing Short of a Miracle...No More Medication!
Nothing short of a miracle describes the changes we have seen in our son since beginning vision therapy. We have watched him grow from not participating in sports, unable to tie his shoes, ride a bike, or jump into a swimming pool, to doing all these things and more. We were told numerous things in regards to Jadyn having ADD, and several other disorders. He was severely medicated, and now he has been off medications for several months. He is healthy, and what a wonderful gift that is. As a former school secretary, I trusted my colleagues, but found following a mother’s instinct sometimes works better. I am so grateful to Alyson and the WOW Vision staff for all their work with Jadyn. He has gone from almost not passing 2nd grade to being on the B honor roll. Not only has his academics improved, but his self confidence and personality are a shining result of all the hard work that he has done in coordination with his family, Dr. Fortenbacher, and Alyson. He has the desire to participate in all types of new activities, he is able to copy form the board to his paper and his handwriting is outstanding. He went from a child who had trouble relating with his peers to building friendships with classmates. I cannot say enough good things about what has happened with Jadyn since beginning this journey. How can you even begin to thank someone for giving them the skills they needed to succeed in their life? Your work is nothing short of a miracle, and I will be forever grateful for finding vision therapy for my son. He would not be the young man he is today without this program. Thank you so much for all of your hard work with our children.
