My 12-year-old nonverbal, autistic, wheelchair-bound son, E, had a surgical procedure early in morning. Angie (Grace) was around as we were trying to get E to wake up enough to drink. She was very pleasant to us and more importantly to E. She talked to him like any other child and didn't even treat him like he had any disabilities, which is very hard to find. He is nonverbal, yet she joked with him and talked directly to him. I love that! She was so caring and genuine. She was amazing and did her job well. I loved her so much, I wish I could have her work in my home. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being so sweet to our son.
