Family needs help buying a wheelchair accessible van for siblings with cerebral palsy

TEAGUE, Texas (KWTX) - A Central Texas family is raising money to purchase a wheelchair accessible van for two siblings born with cerebral palsy. Jerry Smith, 19, and Nyla Smith, 18, are 11 months apart and have both used wheelchairs their entire lives. Their mother, Johnna Amos, says she experienced a placental abruption during her pregnancies, which caused a lack of oxygen in the womb. This led to both Nyla and Jerry developing moderate to severe cerebral palsy. “Both of them are affected in all limbs,” Amos explained. #CerebralPalsy #CerebralPalsyLife #CerebralPalsyKids #TeagueTexas For more Local News from KWTX: https://www.kwtx.com/ For more YouTube Content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYedMp8lKCCw9y0Qe3J9huQ
