Adventurers Jim & Tori Baird on their son’s FOXG1 diagnosis, life in the wild | National Geographic
For outdoor enthusiasts Jim and Tori Baird, when their four-year-old son, Wesley, was first diagnosed with FOXG1, a rare neurodevelopmental disorder, it seemed like their days of adventuring might be over. But after learning from doctors that being immersed in nature could have a positive impact on his development, the Bairds began taking Wesley and his baby brother, Hudson, on expeditions into the backcountry, doing off-grid living their way. #HomeInTheWild #DisabilityPrideMonth

Ooooh.......... guys.............. I wish I was there with you to assist and give you HUGE HUGS!!!!!!!!
Much love to the Baird family as you journey and adventure onward! You're ongoing story is inspiring and it is so joyful to see Wes and Huddy interacting and learning about the outdoors. 💜 Thank you! B
You could be a spokesman for FoxG1 and help make the public aware of this new unknown syndrome. The more awareness the more donations. The more donations the more research. Thanks for sharing this with us!
Glad you two are his parents. Your love is amazing. I love Jim and your honest reaction. His love for nature is so important. I appreciate your sharing. We all need to understand and support you.
This was a beautiful description of how I see your family❤
beautiful boys! Love and peace to you all!
Wonderful parent's ❤
Laughter in the backseat while you are crying in the front seat. Some people ride life in the center and live their whole lives without really living. I can see that you guys are embracing the tears and the laughter and perhaps that's God's greatest lesson for us all.
What a great informative video. I love Jim and Tori's videos. Such an inspiration

At least he was given the chance of life and in that he brings you and others joy.

@@JimBairdAdventurerDang, that could be a reason why the kid was born with special needs. By the time a women is 30 only about 90% of her eggs are left, and those aren’t her healthiest eggs.

Finally a declaration of PRIDE one can actually be PROUD of.

Are you the arbiter of PRIDE? If PRIDE is a trigger word for you, you should probably go find your grandparents grave and ask them why they didn't teach you humility.
