          Why does life have to be so hard for some people? This breaks my heart. I hope this little one knows nothing but love, kindness and joy in her life. And her parents find peace of mind and support.

          Not going to prom won’t be the end of the world. She needs a family and community, yes, but most importantly, she needs to be able to live her own life w her family in that community.
