Meet Peyton. I first met Peyton when I photographed her at Children's hospital. When most parents are at home celebrating their new arrival and picturing their hopes for the future Peyton's mom Nicole spent five months visiting her daughter, living day to day, praying her new daughter would make it.
Now Payton is a happy 21 month year old beauty. She is full of personality and strength. She still faces many challenges and her family is doing everything possible to give her all she needs.
Her family just found out about a Therapy called CME Therapy. CME, the acronym for Cuevas Medek Exercise, is a physical therapy approach for infants suffering abnormal developmental motor evolution caused by a known or unknown non-degenerative syndrome affecting the Central Nervous System.CME Therapy has a very high success rate in helping children with low muscle tone learn to walk.
The family would have to go to Toronto to get treatment for Payton as there is no one else in Canada with the qualifications.
Her family is having a garage sale this weekend to raise funds:
587 Powerhouse Road Saturday and Sunday 9am-3pm
Pop by, do some shopping and help the family feel supported. I will keep you posted on any other events to raise money in the valley.
Here is Payton just a few weeks ago playing in the studio.
She is a beautiful inspiring girl, and they can use all the support they can get

Peyton's journey has been and will continue to be an inspiring one. She is fortune to have a family that won't give up on her. Which, despite her challenges, makes her a very blessed little girl.
