I have some experience with special needs children. I have taught dance classes for disabled children. I am very partial to special needs individuals because they seem to only be able to show love, and know no different. I feel like they can be misunderstood and judged without reason. I like to be able to give them the ability to achieve their hearts desire and never hold anyone back from what they love and their dreams. I work with excellence, patience and understanding and I like to feel that I left a positive impression in the lives of all the children I have taught. I have extensive experience in emergency medicine in the veterinary field with disease such as diabetes, DKA, respiratory problems and any other problem that can be seen in an emergency hospital, even though my experience is primarily in veterinary medicine the aliments are the same. I also cared for my grandfather who was legally blind and extremely hard of hearing. He would have mini strokes frequently and he had a urinary bag, colostomy bag and a feeding tube.
