My son had cerebral palsy due to a hospital mistake. I had to learn to do everything for him, I was his eyes his hands and his mouth I was his everything for him. He was feed through a feeding tube, I also had to learn to give him seizure, Acid reflex, medicine and be able to suction him through his nose and mouth with a Suction tube. I have to learn about all the challenges that came with special need children like occupational therapy physical therapy speech therapy. He really could not do much for him self I had to do everything for him. He was the most loveable boy ever and he loved you back. I think little kids with special needs are so caring and loving They have so much love to give. My son did pass away about 20 years ago and all I wanted to do is to be able to care for a special kid that needs my help! I am a very caring, loving, responsible lady, I have such a good heart and so much to give. Please let me be able to help you and your family. Thank you.
