Ana Alapić, mother and caregiver of the boy Mate, who suffers from SMA type 1, is on a ventilator and in-home care. Because of Mata's inability to speak, 12 years ago, I started researching the possibilities of alternative communication and assistive technology. Because of this, Mate got to be included with his peers in the regular education system.
