Yes, similar to what Snedeker mentioned, there are many cases where people with disabilities had instrument adaptations. I had a similar situation to yours a few years back with a saxophone player whose fingers were short due to an accident. We worked with popsicle sticks as mentioned above (we only had to adjust the right hand) and he was able to play that year with the modification. It was great to see him able to play the saxophone! He soon learned to adjust the position of his hand forward more and use some of his hand to play the saxophone without any modification. I would recommend talking to the local shops as well, to see if they have any ideas. Good luck!
