Nir is our first child.

When he was five months old, we realized that his strange
hand movements were actually very severe seizures. After two years of
aggressive treatments his condition thankfully stabilized, but considerable
damage had already been done. Today, at the age of 21, Nir suffers from
severe to medium intellectual and developmental disabilities. Imagine how
difficult it is to raise a child who cannot speak. But despite the immense
challenges, we are a normal family. When I see how Nir's two brothers care
for him but also tease and play with him, I smile to myself. Nir is part of our
family, and I can't imagine him living far away from us. Mere words cannot
describe our endless worries about his future. This home brings great hope to
our family. Now we know that in the end, everything will be OK.
