Climbing to the Top
My son is afraid of elevators and stairs. We’ve worked on stairs for months!! It used to take an hour to get to the 2nd floor; today, it might take a few seconds!! THIS WAS HUGE!! Not a lot of people understand that!!

HUGE Victories
My son with ASD didn’t have to be physically restrained at the dentist for the first time.

Self Advocacy
Last Thursday my daughter, Roisin, gave a presentation to members of the social care degree class in ITB to raise awareness of Kabuki syndrome. She spoke about how it affects her, her challenges and desire to be independent in spite of them.

Keeping Up!
My son walked and played very actively for over an hour at a wedding we went to! He is TPN dependent and has low activity stamina, so that was HUGE for him!

Crowned Queen
