Hello! My name is Mackenzie, I am 22 years old. I have been around special needs all of my life, my grandmother takes care of special needs and I used to take over on weekends. I grew up around a Down Syndrome man, who I ended up caring for until he passed away. Some of the conditions I have taken care of people with - Alzheimer, Down Syndrome, Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Cystic Fibrosis, and many with physical impairments. I also have family members that have ADHD, ADD, Bipolar, Alzheimer, Cancer, heart defects, and vision and physical impairments. I am also in college right now, and I am getting a degree towards becoming a special education teacher.
