Kaylee, 2025

Six-year-old Kaylee was diagnosed with Guillian-Barré syndrome, and in a few short weeks became paralyzed from the neck down. When the paralysis began to impact her breathing, she was admitted to the ICU and underwent a tracheotomy. As part of her recovery process, Kaylee began intensive physical, occupational, and speech therapy. After hearing about her story, Watermark for Kids helped Kaylee and her family prepare for her return home, providing essential home modifications including a wheelchair ramp, driveway expansion, bathroom applications, and other accessibility improvements. With these enhancements, Kaylee’s family is hopeful she can continue to regain her mobility and be able to walk again.
