The Nowak Family
Story
Rowan is 2 years old, he was born prematurely and his problems started the second he entered this world. He was air lifted to childrens right away and from there our journey began, they found bleeding on Rowan’s brain he wasn’t eating right he had to get a feeding tube in. Rowan fought for his life. They found out that Rowan had cerebral palsy because he was having a lot of spasm’s he wears legs braces right now. other than Rowan’s cerebral palsy Rowan was recently diagnosed with autism and he self harms very badly. I am not able to work I have to be with him at all times, Rowan faces a lot of heath issues we are still in the process of finding out what’s all fully wrong with him by doing genetic testing. Rowan is in and out of the hospital as he has failure to thrive and he cannot gain weight Rowan also won’t grow and hasn’t grown since he was about 12 months. So we’re hoping the genetics test shows us some answers as to why he won’t grow or gain weight. Rowan has fought his way through life and it’s only getting worse for him as his mother it’s the worst thing to watch your child struggle to just live! Rowan is such a great child he’s funny, he loves his 3 siblings, he loves toy story and he loves life even though he has to fight it! Rowans smile can light up a room he deserves the best! #Rowanstrong
