This is Cory Peak. At just under 1 month, he was hospitalized for failure to thrive. A heart murmur was detected at 1 month. He has Aortic and Pulmonary Stenosis. Cory was diagnosed with Ws at 6 months. When he was 1, and again at 18 months, he had surgery to correct crossed eyes. He also has had heel cord release on both heels due to toe-walking. Cory has been in both speech and occupational therapy since before he could sit up. He is now a 3rd grader in a traditional classroom for half the day, with the other half in resource. Cory is a very picky eater -- liking only what I describe as "food with no color". He likes peanut butter sandwiches, crackers, cereal, pretzels, Pringles, etc... . He really dislikes fruits and vegetables. He enjoys going to the mall and visiting the video store. Cory loves to play video games and work on the computer. He also loves to spin anything and everything. Cory is very friendly and there is no stranger in his eyes. |
