The child, KK is the youngest of a working family of 5 from De Bao County. He suffers from cerebral palsy with severe spasticity and cortical visual impairment. The father is a causal worker at a factory manufacturing bricks. The mother tries making extra earning as a tricycle driver during the day while the grandmother takes care of KK. Due to the severe spasticity, the grandmother has difficulty in feeding KK. Despite a day’s work, the mother perseveres with KK’s training but the child cries most of the time. The special chair is for positioning KK in a more stable and better sitting posture so that he can feed and learn using the hands more easily

KK was in the grandma's arm outside their home.	KK sits in the special chair with a good posture for a meal.	KK used to be held in arms to eat before the donations.
