Enterovirus - Photo and Video story for USA Today

April 01, 2015 in instagram

USA Today reached out to us to do video and stills for a story on Bailey Sheehan. This sunny 7-year-old was paralyzed in her right leg and has trouble with her neck and arms due to a polio-like illness called the Enterovirus. And though she is regaining her strength and learning to walk again, the truly terrifying thing is that the cause and the treatment of the virus remain unknown. The whole Sheehan family opened their lives to us in the middle of this craziness, letting us tag along to physical therapy, then home where we interviewed Bailey's mother, Mikell. Mikell is doing anything and everything she can to help her daughter and get the word out about the virus.
