Brown Lacrosse would like to celebrate Miracle Child Monday with dmatbrownu - Dance Marathon at Hasbro Children’s Hospital - and our toughest team member, Nick Cioe!!! Nick is an inspiration to our team every day!
——————————————
🌟It’s Miracle Child Monday! Meet NICHOLAS!🌟
Nicholas was diagnosed from birth with Atypical Cerebral Palsy and Mitochondrial Disease, a rare disorder that causes the mitochondria to not produce enough energy. When he was 14 months old, Nicholas and his family connected with Hasbro Children’s Hospital, and they haven’t looked back since. Nicholas’s parents, Kevin and Laura, commended that the medical team “pulled together and developed outside the box plans that have honestly changed his life!” From undergoing series of botox injections to bilateral hamstring and hip flexor release, Nicholas has grown into a happy, confident, and funny teenager!
He enjoys all things sports, and spends plenty of time hanging out with the Brown University Men’s Lacrosse Team through a partnership with Team Impact!
We hope to see you around soon, Nicholas! #ftk #forthekids #dancemarathon #hasbrochildrenshospital #childrensmiraclenetwork
