Ms Dalingay got the vehicle last week and said it made life so much easier.
“There is a lot less lifting,” she said.
Ziggy is one in 18 people around the world living with Vici syndrome – a severe, neurodevelopment, progressive disorder caused by a mutation in the inherited EPG5 gene.
The disorder affects Ziggy’s motor development, vision and hearing.
There is no cure but Ms Dalingay said her son’s condition was treatable.
