Supportive care
Therapy, nutrition, seizure care, school support, and daily help are part of treatment — not extras.
How it works
NPC touches walking, swallowing, speech, vision, sleep, and thinking. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy, feeding support, seizure medicines, and school accommodations help a child stay as strong and connected as possible while disease-modifying treatments do their work.
