Sebastian's Story
When 22-month-old Sebastian Scolamiero's playful energy began to wane, parents Stephen and Mary noticed some other subtle but concerning changes in their son. Their typically vibrant toddler became unsteady and began to hesitate, clinging tightly to their hands―unwilling to run or jump as he normally would. Alarmed, the Scolamieros brought Sebastian to see his primary care physician who referred them to a neurologist.
