We knew early on that Cash had this special gift of influence. He is bold and lives his life on purpose. He lights up any room he rolls into! The phrase "my resilience is greater than life's resistance" speaks to Cash's tenacious attitude towards life. Cash's adversity and the challenges he faces never stop him from accomplishing his goals and desires. One thing that's next for the Harris family is that we have developed a non-profit called the Harris Family Accessibility Assist. Through sharing our story, we have realized that there is a huge need for other kiddos with different abilities to receive the therapy and equipment that our insurance has been so gracious to cover. There is a major gap when it comes to coverage for many others leaving families struggling to provide these things for their kiddo.
