Throughout the years I have grown up with quite a few people around me who have special needs who I love so much. As for myself, I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was 3, now I am completely stable and haven't had a seizure in about 2 years and prior it was about 3 years. I also have 4 cousins who are autistic and on the spectrum who I grew up babysitting and constantly being around. So from a very young age I learned how to love and take care of everyone no matter their situation. As I became a teenager their was a family in our neighborhood who their son had cerebral palsy among many other conditions I would go over about once a week starting at age 14 till about age 16 to go babysit or hang out with those kids so their mom could get some work done. I learned how to feed him through his tube among many other life skills. I would love to become part of your family by taking care of your son! If you have any more questions please let me know!
