CHRISTINE Stow’s daughter Imyjen Steele, 11, has Schwartz-Jampel Syndrome and spends life in a wheelchair, unable to walk or talk.
It makes normal life a challenge for the Epping family, and especially for Imogen’s 13-year-old sister Auraria (left), says Ms Stow.
“We can only go places where wheelchairs can go,” she says.
The Diamond Valley Special Developmental School is running a Sibling Information and Activity Night in May for children in the Plenty Valley and Diamond Valley areas whose siblings may have disabilities.
It’s aimed at children aged between five and 18 who would like to find out about sibling groups in their area, have some fun, games and share some stories.
At Diamond Valley Special Development School, 13-15 Brentwick Drive, Greensborough on Thursday, May 10, from 5-7pm. To register, call 9432 1022.
