An 8-year-old deaf-blind boy with a rare, terminal condition who was told he wouldn’t live past his first birthday is growing up in a happy home thanks to his parents’ determination in making him feel and experience love from all angles.
Gideon Jolicoeur from Rockwell, Texas, was diagnosed with a degenerative genetic condition called peroxisomal biogenesis disorder (PBD) at 7 months old. He is legally blind, profoundly deaf, and has reduced mobility.
