A P.E.I. family says the province's health system failed their young son to the point where they shelled out thousands of dollars to get him care in Alberta on top of the support he was given back home.
Sixteen-month-old Elliot Rossiter has cerebral palsy. Since his diagnosis six months ago, a number of specialists on the Island have been seeing the Miscouche child every four to five weeks.
His parents, Kate DesRoches and Spencer Rossiter, say that isn't enough.
"They really thrive off of routine therapy… weekly. It's hard that on the Island… it seems like that's not going to be a possibility for Elliot," his mother told CBC News.
"It's really unfortunate for Elliot's sake that that is how it is — and his success might be altered due to the unavailability."
