August 14, 2013 we gave birth to a beautiful amazing little girl. She was our fourth child, but she was our only girl.
Destinee was diagnosed at 13 months and she showed a very significant developmental delay. My husband and I were very heartbroken not knowing what was going to happen next, but we found some great people and support along the way.
Destinee is three and a half now. She goes to school and is showing some great improvement. It’s hard — I know –birthdays, holidays and just everyday routine but never give up look for all the help you can get.
The best advice I can give any parent is to get to know your child and show them how much you love them every day and the rest will follow. Enjoy them they grow up fast…
