Ventura parents, whose 4-year-old son suffered traumatic brain injury as a baby, launch website to help other families
A stroke, a fall or even a stressful birth can lead to permanent damage and even death in children.
Every time 4-year old Mikey Pizzo of Ventura responds, it's a victory. When he was 7 weeks old, his mom Christina Pizzo discovered her newborn had stopped breathing while he was in his baby carrier. "He went into cardiac arrest and he ended up in cardiac arrest for between 45 minutes to an hour," said Michael Pizzo, Mikey's father.
The brain damage caused motor control loss and vision impairment. Mikey can't swallow, so he uses a feeding tube. But through specific rehab therapy such ABM Neuromovement, he can communicate and interact.
