Learn more at www.agrenska.se Who Will You Work With? I am an active, energetic 12-year-old boy living with my mom, dad, and older brother in Kungälv. I love speed and excitement and am looking for a creative assistant with a youthful spirit who wants to go on adventures with me. I love fast-paced play and am looking for someone who will help me drive radio-controlled cars, jump on a trampoline, ride roller coasters at Liseberg, play with trains, swim in the sea and at swimming pools, and run in a frame runner or various races in a special running stroller. I also enjoy calm and relaxing experiences like visiting Eldorado and the sensory rooms there. I like spending time with my friends—we go to wheelchair dancing together, among other things. I hope that as my assistant, you will help me take initiative in activities that my friends and I can do together and help me stay in touch with them. I have cerebral palsy, severe intellectual variation, bilateral cochlear implants, and epilepsy. I have a feeding tube in my stomach that I use when I can't eat through my mouth. I have no verbal speech but am very expressive and communicate through eye contact and body language. It is therefore important that you are attentive and can read my needs and what I want. I am also practicing communication using picture support in a PODD book and eye-tracking computer. I need help with everything in my daily life, such as getting dressed and undressed, eating and medication, diaper changes, washing, and becoming more independent in play.
