Biography

Sapphire was born with sepsis and had a rough start. I tried to breast feed but she couldn’t latch, we then found out she had cleft palate. She didn’t sit up until around 16/18 months old, this is when we noticed she had scoliosis. She didn’t walk until 3 years 6 months old or talk clearly until around 6 years old. She still struggles with expressing herself now at nearly 11.
