Síndrome de Down
¿Qué es el síndrome de Down?
El síndrome de Down es la afección cromosómica más frecuentemente diagnosticada en Estados Unidos. Se trata de una afección genética en la que hay un cromosoma adicional, también conocida como trisomía 21. El síndrome de Down causa discapacidades intelectuales y retrasos en el desarrollo de por vida, pero los niños con síndrome de Down pueden tener resultados positivos con las terapias y la atención adecuadas. Las personas con síndrome de Down pueden presentar un tono muscular bajo, lo que resulta en debilitamiento muscular, así como otros problemas de desarrollo. ¡En Hogg Therapy estamos aquí para ayudar! La intervención temprana es fundamental para ayudar a su hijo a alcanzar su máximo potencial.

It’s time for another AAC success story!📱🌟 Meet Mikey-J, a joyful and resilient 4-year-old who is already showing incredible progress with his Tobii Dynavox AAC device! Diagnosed with autism, Mikey-J began using his speech generating device around a year and a half ago, and what a difference it has made.👏 One of the first breakthrough moments came when Mikey-J used his device to say “bite bite”—letting his family know he was hungry. Before AAC, this would often lead to tears and frustration as his family tried to guess what he needed. That small but powerful phrase opened a big door to clearer communication and more peaceful daily routines. With the consistent support of his therapists Mrs. Megan, Mrs. Taylor, and Mrs. Emily, and a lot of encouragement at home, Mikey-J is now using his AAC device to express his basic needs—a huge step toward independence and connection. His family’s message for other parents just beginning their AAC journey? “Don’t get discouraged. The more you work with your child, the more they will like it and be willing to use it!” ♥️ We are so proud of Mikey-J and the progress he’s making. This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to see what he’ll say next! 🐷💬 #hoggtherapy #aacawarenessButton

It’s time for another AAC success story!📱🌟 Meet Darren, a bright and determined 6-year-old who has been making incredible progress with his Tobii Dynavox AAC device. Diagnosed as autistic and nonverbal, Darren is an AAC communicator and uses some sign language. Darren began his AAC journey around 6 months ago—and the growth since then has been truly inspiring. One of Darren’s first big breakthroughs came during feeding therapy, when he used his AAC to choose a body part—like his nose or lips—to touch a new food to. With the support of his occupational therapist, Mrs. Jen, he even started counting food items using the number keyboard, making the experience fun and engaging. That moment showed just how much potential his AAC device had to support not only communication, but learning and confidence too.♥️ With daily encouragement at home and the steady support of his therapists, Darren now uses his AAC to express emotions, participate in classroom activities, and make choices throughout the day. He loves the number and letter keyboard, and thanks to his AAC, he can now identify all his letters, colors, and even write numbers up to 20!👏 Darren’s family wants other parents starting their AAC journey to know: “It may feel overwhelming at first, but it’s so worth it. Stick with it and trust the process—watching your child communicate without frustration is the best reward.” We’re so proud of Darren and all that he’s accomplished. This is just the beginning—and we can’t wait to see where his AAC journey takes him next! 🐷🙌 #aacawareness #hoggtherapyButton
