All my children have come to me with special needs. Some of their needs were prematurity, drug addiction at birth, emotional disabilities, physical disabilities such as AIDS, cerebral palsy, and mental retardation. I have been passionate for over 25 years working in this field as these children bring such joy and are so loving and dependent upon good care and interaction. These children elicit a smile from the smallest feats accomplished and it is a joy to feel that I have been part of such progress. Their unconditional love and dependence upon another human being for their basic requirements makes one feel grateful to be able to give that love and caring. They have been the reason behind all my learning, dedication and love over these past years. I truly am blessed when working with this population of special needs children.
